Patricia N. Care Companion in Fairfax, VA 22030

We’re so lucky we found Patricia. Our toddler is typically shy and weary of strangers but she warmed up to Patricia quickly! Patricia was great about sticking to our kid’s schedule and prepared her meals for her + cleaned up. She always showed up early, and was super attentive to our kid, as well as super sweet to our dog. My toddler definitely loved spending the time with her and grew attached, which was reassuring. Can’t recommend her enough. She will definitely be the first person we call when we need backup/intermittent childcare.

Patricia is exactly what you hope for with a babysitter! She was comforting to work with as a parent and instantly connected with our kids. We were visiting from out of town for a family wedding that our 2 and 4 year old were attending but not until the end. I brought the kids back, over tired from a wedding, expecting some tears at a new babysitter - she jumped right in, connecting and helping with getting ready for bed (younger one straight to bed). I then left my 4 year old awake with her - he’s usually not good when I leave - and he barely looked up, already comfortable with Patricia. Patricia was prompt with initial messages, interviewing, and references (which I’m happy to do!). I only wish we lived locally and could use Patricia again!

Patricia was on time, professional, and had no trouble spending time with a 2 year old. Thanks, Patricia!
