Testimonials

"I met Matthieu-Amanda at a mutual aid event where they provided free haircuts to the community. From there I learned of their business. I’ve hired people to help me with my cleaning needs but either there was issues with the services or the relationship dynamic was uncomfortable. That has not been the case with Matthieu-Amanda. They are not only an exceptional cleaner but you can feel they truly care for their clients. I appreciate the extra details in their cleaning, their positive energy and the conversations we have. They are respectful, professional, and trustworthy. As someone who’s been struggling with their health, I am grateful to have come across their services and I'm sure other clients feel the same."- Jane Ponce

My wife and I are incredibly grateful for the support Matthieu-Amanda has given us over the past year+ by babysitting our 3 and 5 year olds, Adeezbah and Baahozhon. Matthieu-Amanda consistently shows up at 5pm on the dot every other Sunday so that my wife and I can go out for a date night and re-connect. It's been heartening to see our kids, who would initially cry when mommy and daddy left, grow to be excited whenever Matthieu-Amanda opens the door. Now, we can sneak out barely noticed and trust that our children will be in good hands for the next few hours. Matthieu-Amanda has helped build that trust by always being communicative should any issues arise and showing empathy and kindness towards our children. We cannot recommend Matthieu-Amanda any more highly if other parents are looking for a reliable and compassionate babysitter to take care of their children.

I have been consistently impressed with Matthieu-Amanda’s professionalism, attention to detail, and work ethic when using their cleaning services. 

Matthieu-Amanda was recommended to me by a friend and after reading their background on their website, I felt comfortable welcoming them into my home. They had a warm but professional demeanor that made me feel comfortable and not at all judged. 

Each cleaning session they began work promptly and took great care in ensuring every space was left clean and well-organized. I knew they took pride in their work because they consistently checked in to make sure I was satisfied. 

I know Matthieu-Amanda cares deeply about the community and ensuring their work helps those in need. Their kindness was evident even with just how they interacted with my dogs and baby. 

I would highly recommend Matthieu-Amanda to anyone seeking dependable, judgement free, and high-quality cleaning services. 

Sincerely,
Tamika Bachicha 

After glowing references from Matthieu-Amanda’s regular clients, I hired them on an as-needed basis for evening childcare for our three young kids, and I couldn’t be happier with our experience. Matthieu-Amanda is incredibly caring and emotionally supportive, even when managing multiple children during challenging moments. They consistently respect body autonomy and thoughtfully honor our family’s rhythms and values, which has made us feel completely at ease leaving our children in their care. They are reliable, prompt, and bring such warm and positive energy into our home. We recommend Matthieu-Amanda to any family looking for a compassionate, trustworthy, and skilled caregiver.

Matthieu-Amanda provides a monthly deep cleaning of my home that is thorough and adapted to my family’s needs. They have communicated directly and compassionately, been transparent about their services and equipment, and kept me informed about new methods and ideas for how they could help in the time we book. I would recommend In Gentle Hands to anyone (and have!) 

Matthieu-Amanda provided child care for my 2 boys (3 and 9 y.o.) in March 2025. They  provided wonderful care as they played with and kept my boys active, fed them, and even got them down to bed. We really appreciated the meet and greet beforehand and the quick/clear communication throughout the night. We were really surprised by how they even cleaned up. It was so nice to come home to a clean house after a night out. My boys said they really like Matthieu-Amanda and requested that they come back asap !  I would highly recommend Matthieu-Amanda  for your childcare needs!

Reached out for some help taming an overgrown yard.  Fantastic service.  Went above and beyond what I expected.  Honest, hardworking, trustworthy and reliable.  A+++

Matthieu-Amanda of In Gentle Hands did some yard maintenance work for us and performed very well, taking direction and working hard and eager to please. I highly recommend In Gentle Hands for yard maintenance and other services. Thoughtful, considerate, and hard working.

I can't thank In Gentle Hands enough for helping me organize my space! I struggle with organization and they did an incredible job making sense of the clutter & chaos. They asked thoughtful questions and set up my closet space to best meet my needs. In Gentle Hands non judgmental help was definitely worth the cost. :)

Matthieu-Amanda has helped my wife and I with weeding, unpacking and repacking our shed, housecleaning, and general yard and patio cleanup. They always did a great job and they are a pleasure to work with!
