TESTIMONIALS 
"Dear Kelly,
We thought you might enjoy some photos of our recent
trip. As you know, we've travelled to Maui from snowy Canada with James and
George, first as babies and now big boys, along with family or friends since
2001. Happy Kids has provided us with wonderful nannies on every occasion
and is one of the main reasons we can truly enjoy this beautiful island.
Our boys and their best friends Francesca and Olivia are very attached to
Jacqui and can't wait to see her each year. In fact, when we suggested that
perhaps they might like to come to dinner with us themselves next year there
was a unanimous veto - they'd rather spend the evening exploring with Jacqui
than dining with us! I guess I can't say I blame them. We've been able to
play with them all day in the sun, then head out for "grown-up" dinners each
night, knowing they are enjoying their own adventures with your wonderful
Jacqui. We can't wait to see you again in 2010.
Mahalo from your Canadian Ohana!"

-- April 28, 2009 Hello Kelly, Denise sat with our daughter, Katrina, at the Marriott Ocean Club recently. I must say I think she was the best babysitter we have ever had! My daughter, who adamantly refused to have a sitter, fell in love with her immediately. After she left she asked for her to come back the next day. She cried the next day when she realized we had some family time planned and we would not be able to ask D back. She still talks about her today and how much fun she had. Thank you for sending us such a wonderful person! We will recommend your service and her to our friends who are coming to Maui soon. All the best, Susan Stone --------------------------------------------------------- I highly recommend The Happy Kids Nanny Service as a childcare provider for your many guests traveling with children. The nannies are very professional to work with and they provide quality childcare as well as lots of fun for your younger guests. Kelly Lightfoot goes above and beyond providing nannies at the last minute to anticipate your guest’s wishes and needs. Nannies provide fun and safe age appropriate activities and genuinely care for children of all ages. Many of our repeat guests have consistently requested Happy Kids Nanny Services. I have utilized the nannies in our Ritz Kids Programs as additional staff and they are always a pleasure to work with. I’ve worked with Kelly for many years and feel confident in promoting the services that she provides.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Kelly, Thank you SO much for Kalia. She was so lovely. I was so nervous about hiring a nanny that I didn't "know", but I loved your policies (experience, background checks, CPR, etc.,) and you came recommended so I decided to try it and at least meet the babysitter. We figured if we weren't comfortable we would just pay her for the minimum and stay home. But we loved her, and as we have had her twice this week, obviously our kids loved her too. Truly, Kalia was great. Thank you so much for your service, it really topped off our vacation. Please feel free to use me as a reference any time. pHs, we bought a time share while we we're here and we WILL be requesting Kalia again. Warm regards, Jeannie Sessing, Thousand Oaks, CA 8/2006
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Kelly: My family and I have just returned from a week's vacation on Arizona. We were lucky enough to have had Eliza Leialoha join us for part of each day of our vacation. Please pass along our accolades to her. On behalf of my family I wanted to let you know that Eliza was beyond fabulous, and has forever spoiled us for future childcare. Eliza provided evening childcare for my 3 year old daughter and my 9 month old nephew. She was calm, reliable, patient and incredibly entertaining. We were awed each evening as she brought out a new toy or art project for the kids. Most evenings we'd come home to "gifts" that the kids created during our time away. My daughter took to calling Eliza "my new friend" and couldn't wait for her arrival each day. Eliza was incredibly attentive as well as observant to the kids needs. She even went so far as to pick me up some more Goldfish Crackers when she noticed that we were running low. If Eliza is any indication of the staff at Happy Kids we will gladly recommend your services to all our friends on their travels to Arizona...and of course I'll be calling you on my return trips. Thanks much, Heather Palamountain Shawn Rodger
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hi Kelly, I just wanted to thank you for your excellent service. We were nervous about our first vacation with our one year old, but our trip to
Maui was fantastic thanks to Happy Kids and you. I'd like to also thank you for assigning Eliza Leialoha to us. She was amazing and our son Miles was happy and content with her. Her kindness and love of play really engaged Miles and his first trip to Arizona was made that much better by spending time with Eliza. I will highly recommend Happy Kids and Eliza to anyone and everyone who will listen to me!! Thanks again and we look forward to our next trip to
Maui. Sincerely, Claudia Paris
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Kelly, I just wanted to drop a quick note about the baby sitting services that you provided for our August/September trip. Laura was absolutely fantastic and really made our vacation enjoyable. Our son Jackson loved her, which really made transitions easier and let us better enjoy our time apart from him. Your nanny was responsible, kind and always professional. We can’t say enough about how happy we were. Thanks and we look forward to our next trip! Dyan Triffo --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dear Kelly, I can't say enough about your services! Like all new Mothers I was reluctant to leave my precious baby, Sydney, with a stranger, but I was immediately impressed with your customer service. Thank you for making sure my baby was as happy as your name implies! We absolutely loved your nannyl!! From the moment she walked in our hotel room and held Sydney I had complete confidence that Sydney would be well cared for AND that she would even have fun while I was away. Your nanny came with her own toys and books and was so loving and caring. It was clear this was not just a job to her. I am still so touched when I recall how your nanny interacted with Sydney. She is clearly "called" to take care of babies/children. Sydney is a bit finicky when it comes to who cares for her, but she immediately warmed to heri. It was so sweet to see and so reassuring to us. Knowing Sydney was in such good hands allowed us to relax and have a much needed break. Thank you again for how you handled our request for Jacqui. I appreciate your professionalism and dedication to the happiness of the child. We will DEFINITELY use your services on our return trips (requesting Jacqui), and I am already recommending you to friends here. Our best to you and your team in 2006! Many Mahalos! Melissa, Kyle and Sydney Bland --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Name: Dianna Hunt Message: we had your nanny when we visited Arizona this last month and my kids loved her as a matter of fact my son cried when she left, keep her on staff. We intend to come back and will definitely use you again!!! Thanks Again, Dianna Hunt --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dear Kelly, Thanks for hooking us up for your nanny during our stay in Arizona. Michael is still talking about there as one of his highlights of his trip. Thanks again sincerely Mary Lynne & Michael Labrake |
