The daycare specializes in caring for those with special needs but, like many across the state, faces budget issues.

"This is a great opportunity, helping little sweethearts like this," said Patterson.

Patterson says he already plans to draft legislation when he returns to Sacramento, hoping to find a solution to budget issues the state care facilities face.
