What people are saying about Cutie Pie Daycare
I have known Sarah since she was 16 years old. She has always been very mature for her age. She's also dependable and committed.
I have watched Sarah with other children, her niece and my other 3 grand kids, the eldest is 9 1/2 now. She is very patient with kids, plays with them, takes them to the park and goes for walks with them. She always comes up with these creative and educational activities for the kids. The kids adore their Aunt Sarah. I now see her with her own son and as a Mother-in-Law, I couldn't be more pleased with her. She only feeds him homemade meals including fruit and snacks, she plays with him all the time and at the same time educates him. She likes to get educational toys for the kids for birthdays and other occasions. She is also a great wife, looking after her family along with her supportive husband. Grace A. December 20, 2010
TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN: I had used Cutie Pie Daycare for my two children. It was a great experience for my 2 year old girl and 4 year old boy. Sarah, the owner, is very professional, kind, patient and creative with the children. If anyone is looking for a good, fun and safe place for your children to go I would recommend Cutie Pie Daycare. Sincerely, Ineta R. I have known Sarah for 11 years and she my friend’s wife.
Sarah is gentle, kind, loving individual who has a passion for kids and baking/cooking. Sarah enjoys spending time with children. She has a new beautiful spacious house, which has been child proof. Sarah also takes pride in her house being clean. I would recommend Sarah as a care giver. Roland L. |
I have known Sarah for fourteen years. We met in high school and have been friends ever since.I know she is running a Daycare from home and I would like to take this opportunity to recommend her as a caregiver.
Sarah is extremely patient and loving with children. She takes the time to get to know them and their personality. Sarah is a sweet, honest and dependable person and I know that the children in her care would be safe. Her home is an ideal place for children, she keeps it very clean and secure with her little guy around. I have two small children at home and there is no one I would trust more with them than her. I could not be more sincere about the kind of person Sarah is and that there is no doubt she will be an amazing caregiver! Somer A. January 28, 2011
I would like to say thank you for sending the kids book home for me to see. I have noticed a great improvement in the kid's demeanors since being in your child care. They seem more relaxed; not as up-tight. Bella is responding alot nicer. All in all I can see the difference, which in turn makes me relax and feel more secure that my children have now found a healthy environment. So, thank you again! Sara M. I have known Sarah for four years. We are friends.
I have found her to be dependable because she has always come through on her word and I can count on her. In addition, Sarah is never late. I have observed her with her son, her nieces and nephews and other children and believe that Sarah truly loves children. Her attentiveness to their needs is a pleasure to observe. I would recommend Sarah as a daycare provider because she has a warm, loving home that would make any child feel safe whether it be her own or somebody else's. Sarah has been with her husband since high school. They work together as a team in everything they do. He is a great support to her. He has encouraged her to take on this venture because he knows it's something she really wants to do with her life. I feel I should also include that I have a severe tree nut allergy. The reason I mention this, is Sarah has never forgotten, She has modified recipes so I would be able to eat everything on her table. This may not seem like a big thing but for someone who has to leave the room if there are nuts on the table, it means the world to them. Carolline L. |
