About Our Founder

Yvonne Roberson-Choyce

CEO - Providers Need Care

Pic1.jpg

Yvonne Choyce has over forty years of experience as an accomplished business owner. However, she chooses to highlight her most rewarding role: her more than twenty years as a childcare provider. This foundation in nurturing and caring for young children propelled her into various influential positions beyond early childhood care. She serves as an active mentor, offering business training and counseling to women starting or expanding their childcare businesses.

Her dedication to early childhood development has also inspired her to author a library of children's books and develop valuable resources and programs. These initiatives specifically target under-resourced communities and educators, ensuring children receive the support necessary to thrive.

Yvonne’s vision to launch Providers Needs Care (PNC) was sparked by her passion for community outreach and her strong belief in recognizing childcare providers as essential workers within their communities. She is committed to emphasizing their importance and advocating for their self-care. This dedication led her to assemble a team of highly skilled professionals who share her mission. Together, they strive to foster unity and collaboration within the PNC network, working collectively to elevate recognition and support for FHCC providers and the communities they serve. This initiative reflects Yvonne’s unwavering commitment to raising awareness and creating a positive impact both within her community and beyond.
