About Patricia

Experience: 20 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

I received my degree in Psychology in 1997. I believe it is imperative to have a stable and loving environment. I have a passion for nurturing and educating young minds. My journey in childcare began with fulfilling babysitting roles, where I discovered the joy of positively impacting children's lives. My approach to childcare is centered around patience, creativity, and open communication. I believe in fostering a nurturing environment where children feel safe, respected, and encouraged to explore their full potential. As a highly organized and responsible caregiver, I'm adept at managing daily routines, ensuring a balance of educational activities, physical play, and relaxation. I'm comfortable enforcing household rules while maintaining a positive and nurturing atmosphere. My strengths lie in engaging children through a variety of games and activities, including outdoor sports, board games, and educational games that stimulate their curiosity and creativity.

We hired Patricia and she called us before to go through details, she is very thorough and came early to get settled. Patricia was great with our 18 month old who isn't use to new people and our 5 year old who is pretty smart and needs a balance fun and structure. We will be hiring heragain!
