“…Best possible hands.”

Hello!

It is with great pleasure and privilege to share my thoughts about the important role Joy Six played in the raising of my children, and why she still is an integral part of our lives today.

Joy came to us as a nanny when my twins were just 1 month old. My husband and I had tried for a long time to have children and, after 5 years of IVF and other measures, eventually found a surrogate to bring two amazing babies into our lives. You can imagine how protective we were of them and that, as two full time working parents, hiring a nanny was one of the most important decisions we had to make. 

We interviewed many candidates and hired one that we dismissed almost immediately. It seemed like we would never find the perfect caregiver for the most important people in our lives.

Then came Joy. The minute she came into our home, sat on the floor with our newborns and shared her philosophies about children we knew we were in the best possible hands. It was clear she was capable of making sure our kids were safe and healthy, but even more importantly that they would be happy and joyful, have days of fun and nights of rest. And, as new parents, teach US everything we didn’t know, ease our fears and feel confident going back out into our worlds of work, family and friends without worry.

We were fortunate to have Joy in our lives every day for 8 years. We would still have her today if she didn’t feel the need to take time to be with her own children! 😊 And then move on to help build new families much like she did for ours.

Joy is still very much a part of our family and our lives. She finds time to see our children, is in constant contact with us, and is the only person we trust to watch the kids when we desperately need ‘adult’ time!

Joy is one of the most caring, confident and capable people we know. I could provide a laundry list of her qualifications and things she ‘does’ – i.e., laundry, organizing, etc. – but that, in my opinion, is table stakes for any nanny. She does all of that exceptionally.

Also to say that any family that employs her to watch their kids is ‘lucky’ is true, but not enough. 

What this letter is intended to do is let a family know that they will live better, fuller lives because they have her to watch over ALL of them.  

Please feel free to reach out with any specific questions.

Warmly,

Laura S.
