Nanny Employer Blog

I recently had the opportunity to visit our new Vail office.  We are thrilled to be able to offer services to existing and new clients who may vacation or own a second home in the Vail/Beaver Creek/Bachelor Gulch/Arrowhead/Eagle part of Colorado.

My family loves to vacation there and we experienced our first Thanksgiving with all 4 of our kids in ski school!  Our youngest, 3 year old twins, were finally potty trained and anxious to hit the slopes!  They got as far as the “Magic Carpet” where they rode up a motorized flat escalator of sorts and were able to “ski” a few feet down with the help of a wonderful (and very patient) ski instructor, making “pizzas” (wedges) and avoiding the alligator alleys (translate “trees”).  We are all anxious to head back up again on Christmas Day for some more practice.  Even though I have a wonderful nanny who lives with us and will be travelling with us to Colorado, I’m sure that I will avail myself of our services there so that I can give my much-loved and hard-working nanny a chance to ski herself!
 
We are so thrilled to have partnered with Jill Smirl, our franchisee in Vail,  to open a much-needed office in that area.  Jill is a mother of 3, knows everyone in the Vail Valley, and is an awesome realtionship builder with a passion for quality and customer service, so she is a great fit for MBF!  She also purchased a local operation, Vail Sitters, and has incorporated their client base into Mom’s Best Friend Vail/Beaver Creek.  We offer a wide range of services in this market, some of which differ from other markets, including ski companions, property managers, and more.  If you are a current member in any of our cities, keep in mind that your membership is good in Vail as well.  A membership is so versatile, since it can be used in any city for a wide range of services, and makes a great Christmas gift so keep this in mind for a stocking stuffer.  If you’re planning a white Christmas in Vail, don’t forget to make MBF part of your plans!
