Client Love Notes
“My husband and I cherished our daily debriefs with Katherine and her overall sense of positivity, understanding and warmth made us all feel so at ease. She took the time to understand our needs and address any questions we had . . . . I learned so much about not only how to be a better mom to my son, but how to give myself grace during this new phase of life where everything feels so foreign and fragile.”
— The Glazer Family
“Inviting Katherine into our home and our lives was the best decision we could have made. Her presence was an absolute gift to our family during the dizzying first few weeks postpartum. Not only did she allow us sleep and sanity, Katherine offered experienced wisdom, practical support, a tremendous level of care and compassion, brightness and levity, and a wide open heart.”
— Hannah G.
