Kathryn was a really excellent babysitter and did a wonderful job taking care of our two children. Our kids are 2 and 3 years old and can be a bit of a handful, but Kathryn handled them with ease and care. She was always prompt and carried herself with a professionalism that was unmatched with other sitters that we had tried. We were really grateful to have Kathryn provide her unmatched skill and experience to the care of our children. We knew that we could leave the house and feel at ease knowing that Kathryn was in charge. I would recommend her services to anyone looking for a highly skilled, compassionate and wonderful babysitter!

Kathryn was my primary babysitter for a year & I'm so sad she's moving away from AZ. She was very responsible & professional from Day 1 arriving at my house w/a file folder to hot down specifics about my boys (ages 1 & 4)! She really cared to get know them & my house rules. Very impressive. I had full confidence that my boys were in good hands w/her for the past year. I was relieved to see she's confident in her sitting skills not to allow my oldest to push her around. She followed by way of discipline which was a big relief. She never complained about those difficult moments when my boys were wild & crazy & throwing fits. Her maturity & experience made her a great sitter. On her last day w/us, I told her I hope we are lucky enough to find another sitter just like her :( I've been disappointed w/the young sitters I've had in the past b/c they are pushovers w/my boys which makes me upset my kids think they can get away w/anything. My boys have a medical disorder (swallowing issue) which makes the past sitters fearful but she had prior experience w/kids w/medical needs & I felt very confident my boys were find w/her :) I'm a fan of sittercity b/c they helped me find Kathryn. We will miss you Kathryn :( thank you for helping me get through my 1st year in AZ!!!!
