    Cathy was great! I have 2 sons, both with special needs & we never had a problem. She was very patient, flexible, fair & always on time. If there were ever any schedule conflicts with other families that she cared for she always made sure that she had a backup sitter in place for my sons & they were great too! My children miss her & we talk about her often but I could not continue to keep her because I could not continue with my school program. I knew that when my children were with her they were in the best care. I did not have to worry about safety or whether or not their needs were being met. Cathy is truly a great person to watch your children & just an overall wonderful person!
