The value was excellent.  With busy jobs and children, the hiring process for a great nanny is nearly impossible.  GDN screened dozens of applicants and brought only the best candidates for our needs.  The mother also told us that we were   Clearly an organization that is attracting the best nanny candidates....  Efficient, responsive, professional.  I would recommend GDN to anyone and will most certainly use you again if we are ever in need of another nanny.  The one you found for us is outstanding and has exceeded our expectations.  Working Mother of 2 in Atlanta  (She was referred to our agency by another client)

Actual Nanny Comment:  One of our professional nannies sent us this letter to post on our website.

This month marked the end of an amazing chapter to my life. My six year career as a nanny with an amazing, loving, family has finally come to an end. It has been one of the greatest experiences of my life, thus far, and it all began on a random whim. I had always been unsure of accepting a job as a nanny.

Sure the kids are loving and it is rewarding to see them grow and prosper, but what about stability and security? In an economy as unstable as ours, it can be concerning to accept a job that relies on the stability of other jobs. Thankfully, I was proven otherwise and was blessed to find a family that accepted me with open arms.

Throughout my time with them, we maintained a healthy level of communication, trust and respect. Working for them was one of the best job decisions I have ever made, and I thank you, Georgia Dreams Nannies, for placing me with such a wonderful family! I look forward to the future with positivity and hope to once again find a family that is looking for a long term addition to their home.  Justine  G.

Our client sent us this letter of reccomendation for the Household Manager we placed with them. The Household Manager worked for the family for 4-years! The Household Manager is currently looking for another job through Georgia's Dream Nannies. Please contact us if you would like to interview her for your next position!
Tracy came into my life when my fourth novel was being released and I had three children under fourteen years old. I was completely overwhelmed and yet hesitant to allow someone into our tight-knit family to help me. Tracy showed up and began to organize our life immediately, unassuming and kind, she took control of organizing the house, closets, pantry. Tasks (ie: cleaning out the playroom) I had meant to do for years, were suddenly done.
We have an extremely busy family of five and Tracy fit right in, making herself indispensable. She adapted to our family habits, way of living and needs. Tracy has always done what was needed to keep our family organized, from cooking meals, to running errands to laundry and even holiday decorating. If I needed it done, Tracy did it with a great attitude, a smile and energy to spare.   What amazed me the most about Tracy was her ability to intuit exactly what we needed before we asked whether it was organizing the pantry or taking the dog to the groomer.
Tracy has been with us for four years and it is with great sadness that we are relocating to another state and can’t take Tracy with us!
All Best

Our client sent us this letter:  What a DREAM NANNY SHE  IS! :-)    This letter serves as a formal reference for Michelle in the capacity of a specialized Childcare Provider.   We had the distinct pleasure of working with Michelle for the past 15 months (September 2009-December 2010). During this time, Michelle held a fulltime nanny position commencing when our son was only some 3 weeks old and helping to raise him to the active, well adjusted toddler he is today.
In addition, Michelle supported our family with housekeeping duties including day to day household management and home upkeep – developing strong and trusting relationships with our garden service, dog walker, pet groomer, cleaners etc.  Most importantly, Michelle provided us with invaluable experience in caring and developing an infant. Working an 8-hour day, throughout the workweek, no request or task was ever too hard for Michelle to accomplish with great enthusiasm and diligence.  Michelle is effervescent, highly intelligent and perceptive. Understanding how to work within a small family unit in a personable yet consummately professional way.
Michelle’s dependability is unquestionable. In all the time she worked with us she never arrived late, always provided ample advance notice of any personal commitments and would go the extra mile to ensure our lives were seamless.
It is with absolute pleasure that I recommend Michelle to any family or childcare service. Not only will Michelle ensure that daily routines are adhered to but she will add great value to the longer-term developmental goals of your child.
It is with great sadness that we had say goodbye to Michelle due to our move from Atlanta to Florida. We will always regard her as part of our family and as a dear friend. Sincerely C.H.  In Atlanta (Mother of one)
 

Our new client sent us this email after she interviewed 3 of our top-notch nannies within 2-days after signing up with Georgia's Dream Nannies.  "Again- they are all great candidates. They bring different strengths to the job.  If you have any feedback to pass along, please let me know.

Nanny Comment:  I was introduced to Georgia Dream Nannies when I was 23. I had just quit my job and was unsure of where and what I wanted to do with my life. My aunt had mentioned this company and thought I should fill out an application. I had done babysitting stuff before but never thought about making a job out of it, but after looking over their website I decided to apply. Serra and her team made things so easy for me and they were great to work with. They were extremely professional and knowledgeable about everything in this profession, making sure that I and the family knew exactly what was expected from both sides so no one was ever taken advantage of. I was introduced to a family close to where I live and immediately hit it off with them. I thought when I took this job that I would be doing it for only a year but it’s been over 3 ½  years and I’m still there and I still love it! The family I work for has become my second family and no matter where I go in life they will always continue to be apart of it. I would have never gained 4 little sisters, 1 little brother and a second mom and dad if it weren’t for Georgia Dream Nannies!   Julie B.

Wife of a professional NFL player   The mother emailed “GDN” this comment one year later after the nanny had been placed. “Everything is going well with S.  She is a great help and my boys adore her.”  The value I received from Georgia’s Dream Nannies:  “Being comfortable with the screening process and knowing I have a sitter that is going to take her role seriously and be committed to my family.”  What did you like best about “GDN”?  “ The convenience of having candidates provided for me to interview that meet my specifications…… I wouldn't trade S. for the world …. .”  Mother of 2 in Atlanta, GA.

K. has worked for my family for over a year, providing care for not only for my daughter but for all of us!.  K. is hardworking, dedicated, flexible, direct, rarely missed work for illness, and always on time. K's responsibilities included caring for my daughter (who was 9 months at the time K started and is now 2), doing laundry, keeping house straightened and in order, providing lunch, healthy snacks, running errands, and much more.  She delivered amazing love and care to our child by reading with her, singing, dancing, creating art projects, taking her to activities (park, grocery store, Gymboree play and learn).  It was crucial that our caregiver be warm, nurturing, loving, and display Christian values to our daughter and in our home.  K exceeded our expectations on every level.  Not only did my daughter fall in love with K, but so did my husband and I.  She is a role model for me as a mom and I know that I am a better wife, person, and mother because of K's involvement our family.  There is no way I could describe everything K did for us but the most important thing is our daughter has progressed on such an amazing level since K entered our lives. I do not know how we functioned without her.   I highly recommend K for the position of nanny to anyone without any reservations.  Although, we are relocating to Chicago and will no longer have K as our nanny, she will remain part of our lives forever because she is that special to us.   Mother of 1 in Atlanta, GA

The most important value we received from Georgia Dream Nannies was knowing that they would do the work and research, saving us a lot of time as well as uncertainty.  Their promptness and responsiveness was outstanding! They were able to find excellent qualified nanny candidates within a week which was AWESOME!  Both my husband and I work, so summers are challenging for us finding a great person to watch our kids.  This is our second consecutive summer using Georgia Dream Nannies and we highly recommend them to all our friends.  We are super impressed!  Georgia Dream Nannies are GREAT!  Great -  Professionalism, promptness, responsiveness, and background checks of candidates.  Keep up the good work...I wouldn't change a thing.  JV- Working mother of two in Roswell, GA

“GA DREAM NANNIES provided a service that cannot be measured when looking for someone care for your most precious gift in the world, children.  They were fast, professional, understanding, and helpful, provided excellent candidates, and were willing to accommodate our every need.  We could not be more pleased with our nanny and the difference she is making every day in our daughters life and ours. Coming from the daycare environment to having a wonderful, loving, nurturing, person in our home has improved our family’s quality of life tenfold.   We would not have located this nanny without the help of GA DREAM NANNIES and their excellent service. WORTH EVERY PENNY.”  She also said that we were "Trustworthy, fast, easy to work with, understanding to our individual needs".  Kendrick, mother of one in Atlanta, GA   I received piece of mind, knowing that GA Dream nannies was working hard to find a qualified Nanny for my position.  Their experience helped me to find a Nanny that is perfect for my family, while saving me precious time. The people at Georgia’s Dream Nannies were in constant communication with me about candidates, the status of my interviews, and helping me with my decision.  This process was new to me, and the continuous communication helped me feel comfortable about the process, as well as my decision.  I was extremely pleased with the entire experience, and I cannot offer any areas of improvement.  It is a well organized service, and worth the money.

"Using Georgia Dream Nannies was a wonderful experience. It really took the stress and anxiety out of finding and interviewing potential nannies. Also, the people they sent to interview were of the best quality! The nanny we hired, who has been with our family for almost a year now, was the first person they sent to interview!! We love her and she really matched all of the qualities we were searching for in a nanny. Like stated above, we loved that Georgia Dream Nannies took the stress out of the whole process. Also, they identified top quality people to send for interviews, who really matched what we were looking for! All the staff at GDN were great to work with too, especially Serra! We have no suggestions for improvement!" Mother of one- Stone Mountain, Georgia

 “We received excellent service from Georgia's Dream Nannies and are extremely happy with the nanny they referred to us.  Before choosing Georgia's Dream Nannies we briefly worked with another Atlanta agency but were not comfortable with any of their candidates.  However, Georgia's Dream Nannies referred several great candidates to us within just one week.  I don't know what we would have done without them. I always felt that the employees of Georgia's Dream Nannies really listened to my needs and were always very prompt in returning my phone calls or emails.  I would highly recommend them to others in search of caring, reliable caregivers”.

Mother of two. J.V Program Manager

“I was very happy with the services provided by your company. I had been in contact with many different agencies prior to yours, and was most impressed with the professionalism of your company (Serra), and the quick response time, and sense of urgency that was displayed. I am very happy with the nanny that we have brought on. I hope I do not need your services for quite some time. That being said, I would definitely utilize your company for any future Nanny needs. Thanks so much!!!!”  Mother of two in Pharmaceuticals sales: Cumming, Ga: Kim S.

 “No, THANK YOU for everything that you have done! You are likely the sweetest and most genuine person I have ever worked with, and please know that God has already richly blessed us ... where exactly would we be without you right now? When our third nanny suddenly quit, I realized that – as a mother – I had run out of options. I loved my job, but knew I needed to quit working if it meant that this was the kind of trend I could expect. I would not allow this to happen to my family again, but had no idea how I could possibly trust another caregiver for my children. When you hire someone to care for your children, you have to remember that (at any age) they are very intuitive. They know exactly what going on and, as parents, you have to work very hard to sell them on the idea of a new person coming into their lives ... feeding them, hugging them, loving them ... in your absence. My husband and I realized that we were not able to find outstanding care on our own and that's when we began researching placement services. From the first conversation with our placement coordinator, we felt like someone finally understood where we had been and where we wanted to go with our childcare. Georgia Dream Nannies took all of two days to find us a truly perfect match. Perfect in so many aspects – a nearly identical match to our work schedules, the ages she preferred, similar personalities – all of our expectations matched hers ... and bear in mind that we provide our wish list and the candidates do the same ... completely independent of each other. This meant that her responses were not catered to our needs – so we knew we were getting honest answers, not what we wanted to hear. As I said to our coordinator after the hire, this agency gave us back things that we felt we had to give up in previous situations. We started out with a raised bar and, without knowing it, we allowed ourselves to lower that standard as, over time, we were chronically disappointed in our childcare. We took what we could get instead and stopped asking for what we wanted. We settled. And when it comes to anyone's children, you should never, ever settle.

Serra – you are more than welcome to post any part of this on your site – it's all absolutely true and from my heart. I love what you all have done for us and I know, without question, that we have just cashed in on the prayers we have prayed for the last two years – someone we trust with the two best things we have ever done in our lives, our two boys. Take care and have a wonderful, relaxing weekend!”
Jennifer T.: (freelance graphic designer) for several magazines.

 “I was very pleased with Serra's openness about how she approaches searching for candidates for the right fit. I liked being able to request in much detail EXACTLY what I was looking for in a nanny and feel that you worked to find someone who met those requirements as close as possible.  I hope this email finds you doing well. I am not sure if you remember me, my name is CM. You placed a wonderful nanny with us back in 2006, S.F. She has been fabulous. Unfortunately, S. is going to be retiring from Nanny-hood in June to travel with her husband before starting her own family. So, we are beginning a search again for a replacement, but they will have really big shoes to fill as she has been a perfect fit and such a blessing to our family. So, that brings me to the purpose of my email. We had such good success before with Georgia's Dream Nannies, that we would like to enlist your help again.” CM mother of one – Atlanta, GA

 A letter from one of our nannies: Firstly, I just wanted to e-mail you to say "thanks".  I don't know if I have told you this before, but thank you SO much for listening to the Lord and starting Georgia's Dream Nannies.  I know that God has used you in so many lives; He has certainly used you in mine. :) You are SO great and I am SO thankful that the Lord has blessed my life with your sweet friendship.  I pray that God continues to provide for you not only financially, but with other Godly nannies and prayer support from friends.  Please know that I am hear if you EVER need me...for anything!! Second, I wanted to share this with you...I walked into work this morning to find a birthday present lingering…waiting for me to open.  It was a weird shaped box, and I had NO idea what was inside.  Much to my surprise, it was a book full of “adventures” I have had with the kiddos and a good bit of my photography.  The front cover read: Our Favorite Dana Days (Adventures with Two P.  Kids) . The Inside Cover: (My picture) All of these pictures come from the eye of Dana M .  They are chronicle parts of her “day job,” but reflect just a little bit of her vast creativity.First page (the one that made me a little teary-eyed):Thanks for being patient, kind, and loving even when it wasn’t easy.  Thanks for tracking our growth in so many incredible pictures (we feel like stars).  Thanks for modeling faith in God, infatuation with the Word, and a heart for those in need.  Thanks for teaching us to be hip and eat our vegetables!  Thanks for singing, dancing, and laughing with us.  Thanks for drawing chalk towns, building forts, and teaching us Spanish.  Thanks for all you’ve done for almost two years!  God is using you to make us into the woman and man that HE wants us to be.  We love you!!!  -Ellie and Josh  Happy Birthday
Isn’t that the coolest gift even?  I LOVE IT!!  It is by far one of the BEST gifts I have EVER received…ever!

“Yes, we are very pleased with our nanny.  We feel that GDN was able to help take the burden off of us by handling all of the details of searching for and narrowing down nanny candidates as well as doing all of the background screening. This is very helpful when you have just become a new mom and have your hands full at home with everything else.” “Thank you for sending us Shay. She has done such a great job so far. She is very willing to receive constructive feedback, is not overbearing, is always on time, is very loving to our daughter, and is very conscientious about the care of our daughter as well as our wishes. We are very blessed to have found such a great fit.” Mother of one and in Pharmaceuticals sales: Atlanta, Ga Christy M.
