I've worked in a few day care centers then went to be a nanny and been doing it for over 25+ yrs. I enjoy arts n crafts, baking out outdoors such as parks

I’d highly recommend Patricia. She helped taking care of my 3-mo old baby girl for a couple days. She was very professional and patient. She has a magic touch that can put my baby asleep without fuzz. She asked great questions that show her respect to different parenting styles. 
I wish I could work with Tris longer. It was too bad that I live too far away for her to travel more often. 

Trish was a great addition to our family. She really loved our baby and we knew she was safe in her care. Trish always thought of creative and fun ways to entertain our baby and had many strategies to console her when she was upset. She adapted to her ever changing schedule and our needs quickly. 

Trish has been a very reliable and loving nanny. She has worked for over a year with us and our kids love her. She is good at meeting expectations that we set and gives very useful feedbacks. She comes up with ideas for doing fun activities with kids. She is very neat, punctual and cautious. She is not over bearing with complains and fussiness that I have had with my previous nannies. I know I will keep her around for as long as possible. 

Trish Is first cared for my twins when they were 10 months old. She was the kids’ nanny from infancy until the kids went to preschool (with some breaks when it didn’t work out, like when we moved further away from her before returning to the area). She continues to be a regular babysitter for them at 10 years old. She is amazing with babies and toddlers, encouraging their growth and development in ways that I, as a new mother, never knew was possible. She can turn anything into an art project and both she and the kids love doing it! She takes a very loving approach to working with kids; I’ve never known her to ‘discipline’ the kids. They just know what to expect and go with it. She quickly becomes an adopted member of your family. She is dependable and hard working. I heartily recommend her!

We couldn’t recommend Patricia (Trish) more. Trish helped me survive the hardest months with twin newborns. My partner describes her as the “salt of the earth.” She’s amazing at accepting influence and knows how to support a new mom. She is incredibly humble and kind. She raised her own twins and has experience nannying for all kinds of kids, including babies with disabilities. She’s great at cooking food for our babies and has incredible patience showing them how to eat properly as they got older. Trish also speaks to them frequently, which helped them to babble and say “Mama” and “Dada” early on. My son had to do lots of tummy time and PT exercises. By having Trish do the PT exercise with him my son and daughter both learned to crawl early and my son started walking early at 9.5 months. It was amazing and could not have happed without Trish.

Trish took care of my three kids from 1994 - 2001, from when the youngest was a newborn until the oldest was 11. She is extremely trustworthy and dependable. I knew my kids were safe, which has got to be the number one concern any parent has when hiring a caregiver for their child! Above and beyond that, she's great with kids and kept them entertained with many fun creative projects.

As a single mom, having to go back to work, I knew I didn't want to have my child in daycare yet- she took all of the worry away. She is thoughtful, kind, patient, loving and knew not only what my daughter needed but what I needed as well.  
She took time to find community programs and play dates, trips to the local bookstore, walks to the park and found a play date at a local church. She asks before just doing, followed my preferred instruction and even grabbed groceries if we needed a few items.  She baked small items, and always cleaned the kitchen through out the day.  She was my Angel.  I'm not sure how I would have done it without her.

Trish is amazing! She was a babysitter or nanny for us pretty much from my twins' birth to seven years old, with maybe 2yrs as Meena' nanny. (We moved a lot and the commute wasn't always the best for her). Trish has always been dependable, on time, resourceful, wonderful! She finds all kinds of crafts for the kids to do, using whatever is around the house or whatever she picked up from friend or the dollar store. She was constantly pushing them to do more than I thought they were capable of doing. I'd come home from work and all of a sudden my babies knew how to pull a sticker off of a sticker sheet or connect pop beads by themselves or whatever it may be! She knows the kids development better than a new mom like me!  She always followed my routine, but I also trusted her professional judgement on almost everything. She is loving and really just became a part of the family. She is amazing and a good-send to me moms!
