“It’s hard to fly into a new environment and leave the kids with someone new. Like any parents, we were nervous, but the moment we met and spoke to Adrienne, all apprehension melted away and we were able to go enjoy some adult time, knowing that the kids were having a great time.For two different visits to Kona, we had Adrienne watch our kids for several evenings while we went out to dinners. The first time, we only had a 3-yr-old. We were there for three weeks and Adrienne watched our daughter 4-5 times. During the most recent trip, our family was bigger – we had a 4-yr-old and a 10-month old. I can’t stress enough how wonderful it was to be able to walk out of the rental house and know that we could trust the sitter. She is nurturing, kind, patient, and she brings lots of age-appropriate toys and books to engage the children. Our daughter – the older one – was so excited every time we left and she complained on the days when Ms. Adrienne was not scheduled to watch her. We felt confident in the safety of our kids, but we also knew they would have fun, learn during the visit through books and toys, and that their needs would be met by someone who has strong motherly instincts. We plan to call Aloha Nanny every time we return and are sad that we haven’t been able to find someone like her on the mainland!”
