Sage is a caring and empathetic caretaker. She helped care for my newborn daughter when I returned to work. She's so sweet and loving. I knew my daughter was in excellent hands under her care. She also checked in with me postpartum, while I was on leave. She made herself available if I needed anything, or had questions. She's so knowledgeable! I can't recommend her enough!!
