    I can't say enough positive things about Kathryn. She has always been punctual and reliable and my son lights up whenever she is around. Her experience with kiddos with special needs has made her an absolute asset for my family and my autistic son. Kathryn's patience and kindness show every time she's around whether she's helping with my son when we have a house full of people or she's watching him for a date night she is absolutely one in a million. I've hired her many times and she has always been punctual, reliable, and flexible with my changing schedule. I can't recommend her enough.
