Patty's Group Family Daycare

"Both of my children attended Ms. Patty's for their early childcare years, and if I were to have another little one, I wouldn't even consider sending them anywhere else. Ms. Patty (and her assistant Ms. S) are amazing. My children have been surrounded by incredibly competent and loving caregivers at Ms. Patty's daycare, and have learned so much -- emotional regulation, routines, independence, as well as about the natural world (frequent neighborhood walks - just this week my two year old came home so exited to tell us he had been on a walk looking for bugs (part of a focus on insects this month)), and also a solid foundation for pre-k in number and letter recognition. Ms. Patty also does an a great job at building community among the families in the daycare - we've made friends with our class at summer cookouts and picnics, holiday parties, and (during the pandemic) occasional parent zoom meetings. And to top it off, the home cooked meals get rave reviews from my kids (and judging by the smell at drop-off, and the amazing food at the occasional daycare parties, I know why!). And last, I've learned a lot from Ms. Patty about how to be a more patient, more confident parent - and I'm super grateful for that! If you are looking for childcare in the neighborhood, definitely check it out!"

"Ms Patty is someone you can really trust. She really cares about proper care and education. She's also very understanding and easy (than some places that may be very unnecessarily rigid). I really appreciated her care for my child."
