A former client described Krista in the following way: “Krista is clearly experienced in working with infants and displays a confident and very calm manner which is invaluable. (She) is mature, professional and knowledgeable and I would say the words calm and consistent describe her working style perfectly.”

Krista believes that all families are unique and deserve compassionate support during such an important life transition. Her job is to care for the entire family so that they may gain the confidence, skills and resources needed to build a strong and successful family foundation, and she is honored to be a part of that process!
