was recently honored for our exceptional back-up care program! 做厙AV has partnered with Bright Horizon’s to provide back up care for families in Florida and Missouri.�� We are love being able to assist working families with their care needs and are honored to receive this recognition.�� Recently 做厙AV owners Sharon Graff-Radell and Stephanie Graff sat down with Bright Horizon’s to discuss what makes 做厙AV stand out from other agencies.�� You can read excerpts from the interview here.

做厙AV for Kids is a St. Louis-based organization with an expansion office located in South Florida. Co-owners Sharon Radall and Stephanie Graff are sisters who fully understand the difficulties of balancing work life and a growing family and who do everything they can to support the clients in their care.

做厙AV was chosen as this quarter���s agency spotlight because of its well-established relationship and rapport with office staff, and because of their caregivers who are singularly focused on making a great impression on families.

That focus, say the owners, begins with the hiring and training process. Prospective caregivers are asked careful questions about past caregiving experiences. They also receive detailed orientation and training, which includes best practices on engagement, expectations, and communication. Orientation is also an opportunity to review the required introductory phone call and the importance behind it, and to discuss how a caregiver can effectively interact with the family upon arrival, at day���s end (a ���what we did for the day��� note is essential), and throughout the day. During this time, caregivers also get activity goody bags that they���re required to bring to care sessions.

Maintaining engagement requires commitment from everyone. The office does its part by offering ongoing education, monthly newsletters covering hot topics, and occasional meetings and events designed to give the caregivers a platform to be heard. Such efforts help 做厙AV develop their caregiver pools and strengthen the loyalty and commitment shown by everyone who works for them.

Stephanie and Sharon believe we are all a team striving towards quality care, ���The caregivers are at the heart of what we do. 做厙AV for Kids believes that caregivers need to feel important and hear feedback both positive and constructive. Good caregivers are a key component to success and should not be taken for granted.���

The 做厙AV for Kids staff provides care for children, newborns and the elderly. All of our sitters are thoroughly screened and are trained to provide the highest quality care in the state. 做厙AV for Kids is currently hiring in our South Florida and Tampa offices and in St. Louis, Missouri.

One reason in-home, as-needed care is so important is because sickness is inevitable when your kids are going to school and daycare. Everyone is playing with the same toys, touching the same desks, and swapping different germs.
So, when your child is sick, but you can���t take off work, what do you? The answer is simple: Call 做厙AV for Kids. 做厙AV has nannies that are available specifically for taking care of sick children.
Because we know sickness rarely pops up during convenient times, like our office hours 8-5:30, 做厙AV for Kids has an emergency service line that is open from 6:30-8 AM and evenings from 6:45-9:45 PM. If you call outside of these hours, 做厙AV ���s own After Hours and Emergency coordinator checks the messages regularly.
Cold and flu season is here, unfortunately. We hope your children don���t get sick this year, but if they do, know that做厙AV is ready to help you by providing quality and reliable back up childcare.
Need a back up sitter? Call the 做厙AV office today: (314) 725-5660 or (305) 256-5905.
