What parents are saying: “Praise was fantastic! My boys warmed up to her once I left. She’s so friendly and kind. My toddler had a blast playing with her and she was able to ease the stress of my 10 month old (separation anxiety). For sure I’ll be using Birdie Break again, and hope that Praise will be available. Thank you very much! ” — Megan L (Mom of 2 Littles) “Thank you! Jessica was nothing short of great - we were very impressed. The kids really liked her and we will definitely be using her again in the near future. I referred you guys to three other parents last night at our event.” — Celine J, (Mom of 3 Littles) “This really is a great service. We rarely go out because it is so hard to find (and trust) sitters.” — Pam G, (Mom of 3 Littles) Please visit our website for more info www.birdiebreak.com. Enjoy your Birdie Break!
