When I found out I was pregnant I considered myself lucky that I had so much family in town to help me out with babysitting when the time came. I have my parents and I have my husbands parents to watch Emma. However I ran into a dilema, I had a party to go to last friday and neither sets of parents were going to work out. I was in sort of a predicament. These days with child saftey being my number one priority and being able to to trust someone with your child I was a little stumped as to what to do. Then I remembered a friend of mine that I knew through Junior League had recently started a nannie and sitter placement company called Little Sprouts Family Care, LLC (http://www.littlesproutsfamilycare.com/). So I quickly emailed her in the middle of the week asking her if she had anyone available from that friday and she said absolutly. Now mind you the people she employees go through background checks, they are certified in CPR, they must show proof of automobile insurance and the list goes one. One might think they were applying to the FBI. So on friday at 6:50 my door bell range and a wonderful very sweet manored women shook my hand and stepped into our house. I picked up Emma and within seconds Emma was smiling and reaching for her. I showed her around the house gave her some minor instructions, and filled out her paperwork from the agency and off my husband and I went. She sent me a text with her phone number within minutes of leaving and a text when Emma went down.
I have to tell you it was a wonderful experience knowing I could trust a non family member with my daughter. Working with the agency was great and I know I will use them again. In this day in age whe it is so hard to trust anyone with your baby I am so glad there are companys like Little Sprouts Family Care.
