She is amazing with my daughter, very gentle, kind and understanding. She listens to my concerns and helps my daughter work through those and any other things my daughter brings up.

Yes, I just wanted to tell you that Erin was greatly appreciated. She was kind of my not only myself but to my son. She was willing to sit there and talk to us just gave us everything we needed to know. She gave us a lot of information that we did not have that no one else had helped us with and kind of set us in the right direction. I think going forward and was willing to answer our questions and help us out in the future if we needed it. She was very much. Appreciate it. Thank you.

I accidentally pushed one. Instead of 4 for the first question. Besides that she is amazing. She connects really well and she is able to talk to my daughter which isn't always the easiest. I would definitely recommend her. She's just awesome.
