  • "Kate genuinely listened and gave us great advice."

    “As first-time DPS parents, we were overwhelmed with finding the right school for our son. Kate genuinely listened and gave us great advice with our son's best interest at heart. Not only did she help us find the best fit school, but also helped us understand UPK and the application process. We couldn't have asked for a more seamless time as we make the transition to ECE.”
