Testimonial for Katie Baxter

Katie came into my life when my twin boys were a few weeks old. My husband and I anticipated that we would need help in the first months while we adjusted to new parenthood. Our boys turned out to be more challenging than we ever anticipated. Sent home with 4lb and 5lb newborn who could Houdini out of the most expert nurse's swaddle, my husband and I were ill-equipped for our screaming bundles of joy. Katie was a breath of fresh air amongst the chaos. We looked forward to the nights when she would come, knowing that the boys would be in good hands and that their screaming fits and demands would not upset her usual cool and that she would be able to identify and ameliorate the cause of their discomfort. At 9 months old, our boys are now (knock on all the wood) consistent sleepers - which I believe was in part due to her hard work and consistency in their first months. Katie was such a joy that when my parents went home, and before we hired a nanny, she would come a few days a week to help while I slept or did laundry. She always was unphased by the boys fits and rages and would often get them to take good naps - I'm not sure whether it was her expert swaddling or her calm demeanor, but they always seemed better when she was around. Katie has a keen intellect and curiosity. She brings an analytical mind and passion to her work - as a new mother, it was comforting and helpful to have Katie share her observations and thoughts without judgment. I felt she was a teammate, who was working with me to puzzle out the mysteries that were my two newborns. I am a better mother because of Katie and I would recommend her to anyone.
