Testimonials

Kristin H - Client

“I highly recommend Patty Cake Nannies. We called right before a holiday weekend for last-minute babysitting, and Christal immediately sent us three resumes of available nannies. All were very qualified. The one we selected did a wonderful job. Our daughter unexpectedly got sick while we were gone, and the nanny handled it like a pro. She was amazing! Thank you Patty Cake Nannies!!”

“We used Patty Cake Nannies when we were looking for a nanny because we have a newborn. The owner is Christal Patty. They are excellent. We told her what we were looking for and she got us a list of candidates with the right experience. We arranged interviews and she helped us with the contract. They were very responsive to all of our phone calls. They were careful to match us with the kind of nanny we needed because we had very specific needs. Christal interviewed people for those qualities and then arranged for us to meet people who had those qualities.”

"Christal, I just wanted to take a second to thank you for what you do. The process of finding a nanny was grueling and painstaking. At times it seemed impossible. That is, until we decided to try your agency. We loved the candidates you brought to the table. We know that we gave you very little to work with given our current financial situation and that we were asking for a lot. And through all of those hurdles, you paired us with Nicole who far exceeds any expectations we had for not only a nanny, but a person in general. She is phenomenal and we are overjoyed to know that our kids are in great hands. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you. We sincerely appreciate it.”

"On behalf of Subud USA, I want to commend Patty Cake Nannies on the service that you provided during our recent National Gathering in Albuquerque. The two nannies we selected for child care, Dana and Lajuan, were prompt, flexible, courteous and wonderful with a wide variety of ages. Although our program was small, having both nannies enabled us to design activities that could be enjoyed by children ranging in age from 5-16. One parent commented that our childcare program was "too good to be true!" We also appreciate your promptness in communications, and the wealth of info that you were able to supply about each nanny. It is not easy to select caregivers for an out-of-town event, but your system served that need beautifully. We thank Dana and Lajuan, as well as Patty Cake Nannies for helping to make our childcare program the success that it was."

We used this service for baby sitters at our wedding reception, we had a kid's room. I started the process of looking for baby sitters very late in the game. Patty Cake Nannies was great! I was able to contact one lady, she sent me profiles to select from, and coordinated the rest for me. All in very little time. Every profile she sent me was extremely qualified, but we were able to choose exactly who we wanted. The baby sitters themselves I heard were amazing. Kid's didn't want to eat their dinners because they didn't want to leave the room. I hear it was a great time in there with all the activities they brought for the kids. Light up hoola hoops, green play dough, etc.So so happy to have found a trust worthy service that took care of everything for me, from the process of hiring to making the kid's night just so fun! Definitely worth it!!

“Patty Cake Nannies is a must have resource for Santa Fe families. The services are promt and courteous and professional. We have a child with special needs and it is not easy to find a nanny or babysitter that we can trust. We could not be more happy with our regular sitter, Sarah. She is so professional, responsible, knowledgeable and super sweet. The perfect person for us and she has made our lives better! Patty Cake Nannies and Sarah are our life savers!”

John M - Client

"Patty Cake Nannies responded promptly and sent us a number of profiles of babysitters who had extensive experience and safety certifications. It also included photos and some personal info about them. The decision wasn't easy, but we actually ended up going with Jamie herself since she is also a Mom of two young kids. By the time we left Santa Fe, we were wishing she lived in California! She set the bar high and we are on a mission now to find the same kind of experienced and trustworthy support at home."

“Patty Cake Nannies has been a great source of information for my family in the past year. Christal took the time to find my family's needs and with relative ease and speed set me up with a few candidates. All her candidates were qualified and undergone a thorough screening process. I felt confident hiring any of them. I will continue to utilize Patty Cake Nannies in the future and have referred the agency to friends.”

Rebecca Martinson- Client

"It's been a painless process all together. We were really in a bind trying to sort out what to do about Lulu and with both of us very busy full time, this could have been an epic disaster. Instead we found a great fit who is willing to work with our crazy schedules and on our crazy timeframe and right in time for me to get back to work on Monday. We feel so lucky to have found Patty Cakes Nannies and will definitely spread the word!"

Cailen Conroy - Client

"I was very impressed with Patty Cake Nannies. We were staying at a hotel in Albuquerque and needed a babysitter. Patty Cake's sent me profiles of several impressive sitters, it was hard to choose. And the one we selected was so great, she had a full "toolkit" of crafts for the kiddos. And one day, we had to cancel last minute the night before because the weather suddenly changed and all our activities were canceled. Patty Cakes was so understanding and refunded the daily fee I had been charged. That was such a relief on our end and such a good business model that I can't say enough about them!"

Emmaly Wiederholt - Client

Patty Cake Nannies helped us find two fantastic nannies for our infant son. When the first nanny had to abruptly move after less than three months, Patty Cake Nannies helped us secure another very qualified and kind nanny. Our son fell in love with both nannies, and my husband and I have never worried about our son's safety and well-being. In fact, both nannies have been helpful in aiding in our son's development via fun activities. We've already privately recommended Patty Cake to other parents we know with small children.

We are in our second year of using Patty Cake Nannies while vacationing in town during the Santa Fe Opera. We have consistently been so impressed with how prompt Patty Cake Nannies is in responding to sitting requests, not to mention the number of quality candidates they send parents' way. As out-of-towners, we wish our nanny agencies at home operated as well as Patty Cake Nannies! A+

Annie Aguilar-Falcon - Event Client

We made an excellent decision hiring Patty Cake Nannies for our event. They were on top of things the entire time and attentive to all the children's needs. The parents only had good things to say about the care they put into their childcare program and they always had fun and enriching activities planned for kids and infants alike. All of the nannies were extremely communicative and reliable. We will definitely look forward to working with Patty Cake nannies again.

Patty Cake is a great company to work with!I’ve had great success finding babysitting jobs when I need them and appreciate the flexibility of choosing when and where I work. Communication between the company, myself, and the families has been easy. PCN staff has always made themselves available to help me when needed; they give sitters a great a balance of support while allowing independence. I’ve met some fantastic families through this service and am happy to be part of the nanny crew!

I have been working with Patty Cake Nannies as a nanny for some time and have had a fantastic experience. This agency stands out because it offers job opportunities that fit my schedule and preferences, giving me the flexibility I was looking for. It's great to have the freedom to work with them while pursuing other opportunities.

One of the most impressive aspects of working with Patty Cake Nannies is their exceptional communication skills. Their team is always on top of things, ensuring we are well informed and supported. This high level of communication ensures that we are always prepared for our assignments and can provide the best care possible.

Additionally, the agency does an excellent job connecting us with wonderful families. Every family I have worked with through Patty Cake Nannies has been a pleasure, making my job as a nanny even more enjoyable.

In a specific instance, I worked an event hosted by Patty Cake Nannies for guests at a local hotel. There was a miscommunication with the hotel regarding parking, and I had to pay for nearby parking, which was quite expensive. When I brought this to the attention of Patty Cake Nannies, they went above and beyond by reimbursing me, even though it was not their policy to cover parking expenses. This gesture showed their integrity and their commitment to supporting their staff.

I highly recommend Patty Cake Nannies to anyone looking for a reliable, communicative, and supportive nanny agency. They genuinely care about their staff and go the extra mile to ensure we have a positive experience.
