My name's Tally and Patricia's been working with my daughter Bella since Bella was 6 months old. When Bella was born, she had severe hypatonia. We didn't even know if she would ever be able to sit up on her own. Patricia came into our lives and changed everything. Today, Bella is 5 years old. She can walk. She is starting to run. And she's able to do it all thanks to Patricia. The thing about Patricia is she will never give up. She came in and looked at this baby who very very few doctors had hoped would ever be able possibly even to crawl and said, "We are going to work together and we're going to do this day after day and week after week and if there's any possibility at all, we're going to make it happen." And she did. I can't thank Patricia enough. We owe so much to her and any child would be lucky to work with her.

My child was born premature and he wasn't meeting his milestones. So, we engaged Patricia to help him help him develop his core strength. With her, he learned to move appropriately. He gained stability. He can move each body part independently. He learned to walk. He learned to run. He climbed. And now he's a typically developing child and an amazing athlete actually. And we owe all this to Patricia. and they are super best friends. Patricia is creative in her approach. She looks at each child individually. She sets their goals. She insists on proper form, which I love. And she knows that each child can do it. She's encouraging. She gives her all to each one of her kids. And she sees them. She wants them, each one of them to succeed to their potential. We are so thankful and grateful we found Patricia to help us help our son and she's just amazing. I highly encourage everyone to find a Patricia for themselves and for their children.

my name is Karen and I started working with Patricia for my son, um, who is now two in May of this year. Um, and he was unable to walk at that time. He was 20 months and we had gone through rigor with early intervention and I was getting super frustrated. So, a friend whose daughter has worked with Patricia for years recommended I reach out to her. We're so glad we did. Her friend said, "Uh, Patricia is tough, but you get results." And we did within a month, James was walking. And now a few months later in October, he is running. He is playing with his peers. Patricia has been so effective and really takes the time to assess the full situation to understand who he is, both personality and also his underlying issues with his core. She has given us so many recommendations to follow up with that home and has brought him up to his full potential. Now he walks the daycare by himself, goes down 200 stairs and now we're working on going up the stairs and he has a great time with her. So thank you so much, Patricia, for everything. you are the best. Thank you.
