Bringing Mitzy on was the best decision we made.
 

 She was a lifesaver! Not only did she help us catch up on sleep (short term benefit), she helped us implement a routine and habits that are still in play long-term.

Parents babysitters and nannies that spend time with her child are still amazed to this day and how easy she is during nap time and bedtime, has she put yourself to sleep.”
