I'd describe my personality as trustworthy, fun and experience I like working with kids because it comes very natural to me. I have know from an early age that my purpose in life was to work with children. I enjoy exploring their curiosity and creativity through games, art and outdoor playtime. I have over 35 years of experience and still continue to want to be around little humans. I'm looking for a job that is part time 3 days a week maybe 4. 10-15 hours a week. My starting rate is $25 My first job experience was at 18 at a day car center in Los Angeles In my spare time, I like to hike and go on beach walks. One thing you should know about me is I have studied early childhood education and have 35 years experienced working with preschool and elementary age children. I've also been married for 30 years and have 2 adult daughters My skills include building self esteeen in a child, helping them learn to regulate their emotions and creating fun learning activities

Patty has been nothing short of amazing with my family. She has been the most caring, trustworthy individual that wants to connect with our kids as well as us as parents. With her background in ECE, she has helped us overcome many “growing pains” with both kids and helped them build confidence and security while being outspoken and polite at the same time. She’s not your average sitter. She teaches kids Spanish, helps with homework for my dyslexic child and has helped my other one excel at reading at a very young age. You’re not just getting a sitter with her, you’re getting a bonus family member.
