Mrs. Cathy is the most amazing babysitter, care giver and role model to my kids! They loved staying with her!! It was hard to find someone that you trust your little ones with but my kids begged to go to her house on days I stayed home.. made my heart melt! There aren't enough words to explain how amazing she is! The kids grew up but still talk about how much they love her! She treats all the kids equally and makes her home thier home! Cathy is... more

My daughter started with Cathy when she was 11 months old. I cannot express my gratitude to her and her family for taking in and completely loving my child as their own! She was part of their family! Cathy made my life so much easier knowing I didn’t have to worry or question about my daughters well being. Cathy was more than just a caregiver she was my daughters second mom and I will always be grateful to her and her family!!

I found Mrs. Kathy through a co worker who loved her. Me and my daughter who was 3 at the time met with Mrs. Kathy at her home. She was very professional and I could tell by her presence that she was passionate about what she does. She made it easy to make a important decision as to whom I would leave my child with. She is so loving but firm, she provides a perfect balance of love, respect and kindness for the children. She even got my child... more

Cathy was the best babysitter we could have ever had. She babysat our daughter Allyson for right at 5 1/2 years. She always had fun activities and provided great meals and snacks for the children. Our daughter always looked forward to going to Miss Cathy’s each and every day. To this day she still talks about and remembers the great times she had there. She provides a very clean environment and safety was always a top priority. You can’t go... more

Where do I begin! My daughter started at Mrs Cathy’s when she was about 10 months old and it was the absolute best choice I could have made for made for her and myself include. My niece also attend child care there for several years and my sister in law highly recommended. Mrs Cathy aka Grammy & Papa John became instant family. I was given daily updates and sent home with tons of color pages, cute little art projects, preschool work and a child... more

I first found Ms Cathy when my oldest child was 2 and a 1/2, my middle child was 6 weeks old when he started with Ms Cathy. My youngest was also 6 weeks old. I never worried about there well being in the Palmerchuk home. They all were prepared and ready to start school for Kindergarten. I cried when my last child was ready to start school.

Cathy helped my daughter so much. As a toddler she had a lot of separation anxiety. Cathy was always so loving a patient with her. It only took a little while and my little girl would run to her in the mornings completely ready to start their day. She is an amazing caregiver. I could not have asked for a better caregiver for my daughter during her formative years.

Hands down the best! God has blessed my 4 children to be able to be cared for by Mrs. Cathy. The oldest is now 15 and began with her when he was 2. My youngest is 3 and is currently with Mrs. Cathy. All of my children are well mannered, ahead when they started school, socially ready when they started Kinder, and overall thrived while attending. I’m not sure she has a specific curriculum but children are more prepared for school when in a home... more

Mrs. Cathy was an excellent caretaker for my son. Not only did he enjoy playing with other kids, but he enjoyed learning with her too. He was ready for school when the time came. It’s not just a daycare, it ends up being like a family.

I have had 2 daughters go through Mrs. Cathy's daycare. She is incredible. Never once worried if the kids were safe or being taken care of properly. Mrs. Cathy worked with both of my daughters to get them ready for school as well. She is very fair and upfront and just flat out loves kids. She is as good as family to us and we still maintain contact to this day.

Cathy is a wonderful caretaker, teacher, and practically family. I know my child is in a safe and loving environment when she goes to Mrs. Cathy's house. My child has been babysat for 8 years here. Cathy taught my daughter preschool basics before kindergarten, and my daughter could even read and write earlier then most of her fellow students. I know she will receive a healthy meal and plenty of play time when she is at Mrs. Cathy's house. She... more

Both of my children attended this home care from the time they were 6 weeks of age until they started school. I can not recommend Mrs. Cathy enough. When the kiddos were little, every day they had a report card letting me know how much they ate, any bowel movements, nap times, happy moods, bad moods, etc. as well as pictures through the day and anytime I wanted to call and check in I could. This was so important to me as a new mom. She also had... more

I can’t say enough good things about this daycare. My daughter was there at a year old until she was ready for preschool. Ms.Cathy became family to us. The hardest part was when our time ended there. If you’re looking for someone to care for your child like your own, this is your place. She helped tremendously, fro. Potty training to reading and learning things. We love Ms. Cathy and Papa John! Clean, safe and fun environment for any age.

Cathy was hands down the best care provider for my children. She cared for them from infancy until they started kindergarten. My children received individual attention and care every single day. She taught them all of the things necessary for them to be prepared for school.

Cathy is overall the best thing that has ever happened to us. Our son is literally treated like her own grandson. We love the daily activities that are given and the many things our son has learned.
