Hello, my name is Patricia. I am originally from Peru, and Spanish is my first language, but I also speak fluent English. For over 22 years, I have worked with children from newborns through teenagers up to 14 and 15 years old. I truly believe that the best way to care for a child is through a lot of love, patience, and consistency. To me, routines are extremely important, because they give children a sense of security and confidence. When children know what to expect, they feel safe, and that safety allows them to explore, learn, and grow with confidence. My goal is to create a warm, nurturing, and structured environment where each child feels valued, respected, and supported. I enjoy helping children develop healthy habits, good manners, independence, and a love for learning, while always working closely with parents to ensure the best care possible.
Patricia watched our 2.5 year old at night while we were visiting New Orleans from out of town. She is warm and kind, and knew how to keep our feisty toddler smiling. Patricia was also flexible with our timing and really helped us enjoy our vacation, knowing our daughter was in good hands. We will surely work with her again next time we’re in town.
