With over 20 years of experience in education, Dr. Patty Newman is passionate about creating high-quality early learning experiences. She spent nearly 15 years as an early childhood teacher before moving into higher education, where she played a key role in overseeing a teacher preparation program, taught courses in Early Childhood, Elementary, Special Education, and Classroom Management, and supervised field and student teaching. Most recently, she worked as a special education co-teacher in an inclusive classroom for children ages 3-5.

As a dedicated educator and mother of three (ages 14, 1.5, and 6 months), Dr. Newman understands the importance of a nurturing, engaging, and supportive learning environment. With the support of her wonderful husband, Victor, she is excited to bring her expertise and passion to Newman Early Learning Center, where children can grow, explore, and thrive.
