My daughter have been with Patricia for 2 months, and we could not have found any better. Patricia is excellent at her job and my daughter is always happy when we pick her up. I would definitely recommend her to anyone I know and have only positive things to say about her.
Always communicates with us and tell us what has happened during the day.
Being back to work after maternity leave is scary, especially to leave your kid in someone else's care, but Patricia has made me feel great about returning to work and has made the transit easy.
