  • "Vilma has been incredibly helpful to our family. I have an almost 3 year old boy, and a new baby girl. Vilma has been a breath of fresh air, helping me to feel “normal” and calm, while simultaneously caring for our new little girl, feeding and playing with our toddler, and somehow doing dishes and cleaning the fridge. She is a boss at multitasking. She is also great at getting to the heart of what mom really needs. She made me feel comfortable to ask for what I really needed, and on days where I was too tired to even know, she just took over and gave me a break so I could function again. She is also a great listener. I wound up sharing my fears with her about my oldest starting 3k (which was timed perfectly with my newborn). It was a hard adjustment with me being hormonal and feeling like I was “pushing out” one baby for another, and him being clingy and crying at drop-offs. Vilma has a background in early childhood education, and just helped talk me through figuring out what I really wanted and needed. which wound up being for me to give school some more time. My son loves it now and I am so grateful we didn’t pull him out! Overall, I strongly recommend Vilma to anyone about to give birth or having recently given birth. She is amazing!"
