We love our families, and our families love us. Read what they have to say!

One of my biggest areas of satisfaction with Hand in Hand is the manner in which Linda and her co-workers interact with the children. Linda is an extremely patient, kind and caring individual. Her teaching assistants reflect the same calm and compassionate demeanor as Linda. They speak very quietly and calmly to the children, even in the most active of moments. They allow each child to actively participate in the conversation, while attentively listening to what the child has to say.

My younger daughter is now three and thoroughly enjoys going to Linda's every day. Linda has her involved in music, clay class, and swimming. My oldest is now in first grade and has had nothing but positive reviews on her educational level as well as her social skills, and ability to work through problems with other children. All this, I credit to the skills and dedication of Linda.

The parents feel very comfortable with Linda and call her freely for advice and guidance with their children. I have seen this numerous times at her home. Linda has developed respectful parent and provider relationships, which seem more like an extended family partnership. One of Linda's ambitions is always providing the best possible education for every child in her care.

Linda provided an enriched and loving home environment for my active and curious child. Those early daily notes about my child were my link to her day, and Linda packed them with information geared to soothe an anxious working mother. I also benefited from Linda' expertise with children, learning to be a new parent from a competent and caring provider who took the time to listen to my concerns and teach me from her own store of knowledge. I also learned a lot from just observing the way she interacted with the children, resolving their disputes, keeping them focused on whatever activity was at hand, and ensuring their safety.
