About Patricia
Experience: 10 yrs
I'm a college student with at least 10 years of experience working with children. I started babysitting my own siblings, and then volunteered at a day camp for young children. As I got older I started babysitting children in my neighborhood. I obtained my Technical Endorsement for Early Childhood when I graduated high school in 2014. From then on I've worked at two day cares and currently am still in school studying psychology. FIRST AID/CPR certified and obtained my CDA (Child Development Associate) in 2017. I'm primarily trained for Infant/Toddler but I have experience with older children as well. I was an assistant for 5+ years and finally became Lead Infant Teacher at the Magic Circle School in 2023. Thank you, hope to hear from you soon!
Most recent review
Patricia (or Patty, as we call her), cared for our baby in a daycare setting. There is truly no way a review can fully encapsulate how phenomenal of a person and a caregiver she is. Solid, trustworthy, loving, caring, responsible, fun & silly with the kiddos in all the best ways. She approaches her work with integrity and gives so much love and warmth to children, coordinating a nurturing and fun environment for them to the grow and learn and explore. She makes babies feel safe and cared for... And she deeply understands child development. Her activities and play are always meeting them where they are and helping them grow and expand. And she's so attuned, she's able to communicate exactly where their strengths are and what she observed, developmentally, even small details that usually just a mom would pick up on. I trust my child with her fully and absolutely and couldn't recommend her enough. Patty is a first tier, top of the line professional caregiver.
