Jessy is creative, careful, thoughtful and adds so many special details to our daily lives. Her dedication to our children is boundless. Day in, day out, when we get home from work, she is engaged with the kids doing all sorts of projects. Our six-year-old decided he wanted to be a dunk tank for Halloween, so Jessy went and bought supplies and made him a handmade dunk tank costume complete with target and attached ball. It was a thing of beauty that he could actually wear. So many people go out of their way to spontaneously comment on how dedicated and engaged Jessy is with the children - parents at music class, preschool teachers, neighbors. She is a terrific representative of au pairs and it makes us proud to have her be part of our family.
