We are beyond grateful to have found Kalen! She started caring for our son, L, when he was just 3 weeks old, and her impact has been remarkable. From day one she has always been incredibly punctual, dependable, and highly qualified, which gave us so much peace of mind during a crucial time.
Her gentle approach, attentiveness, and understanding of infant care have exceeded our expectations. L is thriving under her care and we couldn’t be happier with the support she has provided for our family. We wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone seeking reliable and exceptional care!

Kalen is an extremely professional, kind, and conscientious caregiver. Oue little girl was five weeks early, and it caught us completely off guard - I didn’t even have a go-bag ready or a crib set up. We were very much laying track as the train was underway as it were. It was a real hard time. We brought on Kalen to help watch our girl during the night so we could get some much needed sleep. We ended up extending our contract with her for an extra month since she was so excellent. She was truly a lifesaver for us in those first few months with our newborn.
Kalen was always on time and very communicative. She had really excellent advice and recommendations when it came to newborns and babies, and always based her information on research from reputable pediatric and early childhood development resources. She helped us manage our feeding schedule and to increase our girl’s formula intake so she continued to grow and thrive. Between our girl being premature, my wife having a long recovery time and side effects from the pregnancy, and the stresses of being brand new parents - Kalen really saved us when we need help the most. We really cannot recommend Kalen enough.

Kalen is an extraordinary caregiver who gave two first-time parents of premature twin boys critical help and advice when we most needed the help. Kalen’s elite in every part of child care, but her superpower is creating consistent sleep patterns for our twin boys.
Kalen coached us on establishing a sleep environment that gave us two happy boys who eventually slept 10-12 hours a night! Her expertise in soothing and calming our babies was remarkable. She was able to help our twins establish healthy sleep routines that allowed them to sleep through the night and have consistent naps.
Beyond her sleep expertise, Kalen showed remarkable sensitivity to our twins’ developmental milestones. She nurtured their emerging communication skills using baby sign language. Her professionalism was exceptional. She was always punctual and reliable.
Her genuine love for children is palpable. We were fortunate to have met her when we first had our boys.

Kalen began caring for our premature daughter when she was 7 weeks old. In addition to being incredibly knowledgeable, experienced, and reliable, Kalen quickly showed that caring for babies is her calling. She was able to read our daughter’s cues just as well (if not better) than we were, and I felt instantly assured that our baby was in the best possible hands. Kalen helped me to problem-solve when we were struggling with our daughter's tummy troubles and provided valuable information about what she saw during the day. She tracked feedings, diapers, and naps accurately and thoroughly and 100% of her attention and energy was put toward our baby at all times. In addition to all of this, it was clear that she enjoyed spending time with our daughter and created a loving environment for her. We were incredibly lucky to have Kalen and I recommend her wholeheartedly.

We have been so very fortunate to have Kalen in our life. Kalen has been working with us since my daughter was 5 months old and has been instrumental in the health, happiness and development of our daughter who is now 5 and starting kindergarten in the fall. Kalen is the upmost professional who does everything she can to make sure she is there 100% for the health and betterment of the children she cares for. She always comes on time, well-rested and ready to give her best. She gives our daughter her complete attention, sets consistent appropriate boundaries for her and does everything she can to help ensure my daughter’s long term happiness and health (and not just do what is easiest). Kalen is a wealth of researched knowledge as she is always reading and learning about childcare and child development. Whenever we parents have questions about how to handle a situation, Kalen listens and shares her wealth of knowledge. She is extremely dependable, very organized and always a pleasure to work with. During the pandemic, Kalen even took on the role of homeschooling our daughter and did an outstanding job. It was such a stress reliever to know that even though I was a working mom, my daughter was so well cared for and that I could always depend on Kalen. During her 5 years with us, she has given our daughter such an amazing head start and a firm base with which to develop which I think will take my daughter far. Again I feel so very lucky to have had Kalen help us during this critical time in my child’s development and would recommend her whole-heartly to anyone.
