I love taking care of the entire family to be able to earn their trust is really meaningful for me. Children don't offer their trust readily, so letting me do their exam and tell me things is sacred to me and not something I take lightly. As a parent myself, I really cherish that. Having as much information as I can reassures me, so I ensure that parents don't leave without as much information as I can give. I may not always have the answers, but I search high and low for them. We can't all know everything. But I think it's only fair to say let's figure this out together.
