Katie was so incredibly accommodating to our last-minute request for a babysitter for my sister’s wedding. Although we were coming from out of town, Katie answered all of our questions prior to her babysitting our two year-old son. She was prompt, came with us for the ride to the venue, helped Cameron get dressed and walked down the aisle, and swiftly took him home to feed him and do bedtime. I couldn’t recommend Katie enough! All of my family members kept commenting that it seemed like we knew her forever because of how much Cameron loved her and was happy to spend time with her. If we were living in Long Island, we would hire her full-time. She was hands-down the best babysitter we could’ve asked for for this day.

We hired Katie to work PT with our infant son and she's been nothing short of AMAZING! She is extremely loving and nurturing with our son and he lights up each day she walks in the door. As our son is our first child, we were a little uneasy heading back to work but Katie has been extremely trustworthy by over-communicating, sharing updates and pictures, and adjusting her daily schedule to fit the needs of our family! Additionally, she has been very proactive doing light housework which has been very helpful. Katie is slowly but surely becoming an extension of our growing family. My wife and I highly recommend Katie and we are so happy that we found her!
