"Our 2-year-old son with Developmental Delays woke every 2 hours for more than 2 years, and we were exhausted. After working with Katie, Aiden can now sleep on his own. It took some hard work on our part, but working with Katie made it possible; she listened to us, we both adjusted, and she walked through it with us until we made it." - Mom and Dad of Aiden, 2 years old
