Patricia Dischler
Patricia Dischler is all about the kids. She’s inspired and guided those whose seats are anything from a bouncy chair to a board chair in order to make this world a better place for children. Her presentations are filled with funny stories of her 25+ years in the field of early education and her many years as a board member for state and national early childhood organizations.
Patricia currently serves as President of the National Association for Family Child Care and travels the country to share her engaging and inspiring stories and creativity with teachers, students and board members. She is the author of seven books and, when she’s not traveling, is sitting in her purple office on a bouncy ball drafting her newest stories.
Patricia’s program will get your group thinking outside the box and give them the tools to make this a better world for children.
