About Patti

Experience: 10 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

Hello! Many families consider me their 'Replacement mom or 'Perfection Nanny.' I am a mature adult who's level-headed, well-rounded, and outgoing (CNA). All of my immunizations are up to date, which is a"Win-Win" for all of us. I believe in engaging children with games, crafts, fun, and activities rather than being glued to a television or video game. I prefer working with children aged 2 to 12 (oldest 18). Seeing more of the fine and gross motor development at the early stages of child development excites me. It is fascinating to watch them realize more about their capabilities and development, as well as helping parents with this task. During the ages of 6 to 12, children acquire new skills and interests, make friends, and develop a new sense of them. While working with many families, I have been able to plan social outings that enrich children's lives by helping them understand their different learning and development methods. We have visited various places. I work with Seniors too.

Patti has been caring for me for 12+ years via an agency, though her preference is Private Duty. She’s been a great caregiver/CNA, as well as a friend, and she ensures all my caregivers are kept in the loop regarding my health , as well as my daughter, who is out of state. My daughter and Patti have established a wonderful friendship bond due to their weekly communication to see all household things maintained, personal supplies ordered, and any other appointments are made for my benefit. See, Patti has gone above and beyond her duties with the agency to be a caretaker, which I so appreciate having her do since it’s not normal. Her best interest in seeing my property doesn’t depreciate has been a lifesaver, being I no longer have the fortitude to do so because of my ailments. She’s only with me 2–18-hour days, but amazes both my daughter and I how much gets accomplished so quickly, and then following up. Patti’s truly a gem! She’s a straight shooter with communication, trustworthy, responsible, and accountable for everything that needs to be cared for. Our conversations have covered a great breadth of knowledge, which shows her maturity. I’m so glad to have Patti around to keep things in order.
