Employee Spotlight: Laila Pacheco – Townehouse Baker Extraordinaire

Posted on: August 4, 2023

Laila Pacheco - Ventura Townehouse baker extraordinaire “I am twenty years old, and I am currently a culinary student at Oxnard College. When I am not working at the Townehouse, I am with my mentor doing catering events. In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my friends. I was interested in cooking and baking at a young age. I remember always watching the Food Network channel. I enjoyed watching the chef on the Food Network channel cooking a full-course meal.

“Watching how they made the dessert was my favorite.

“My dad also influenced me, as he liked to cook. On my father’s side of our family are cooks and bakers. So, maybe it’s in my genes. He is very proud of me for following in his footsteps and for doing a job I love.
One day I hope to have my own restaurant or café.
I am very grateful and love working here as the baker for all the residents.”

Our Happy Residents

My grandmother lives at the Ventura Townehouse and I feel confident that she is in good hands. They get her to her appointments and provide any aftercare that she may need. Everyone there is friendly and like family. I feel like I’m at home when I go there to visit her and eat with her in the dining room.

Recently, I visited my Mom from Chicago. Each day I offered to take us out and about in Ventura. We found ourselves having such an enjoyable time at the Townehouse we didn’t leave. The dining room was so lovey to enjoy with her friends. Patios welcoming and the activities kept us busy. We laughed and had fun all day! Thank you everyone for making me feel at home and making my visit special. It’s always hard to leave my mom. But not as hard when I know she is so happy! Until my next visit!

Staff is very helpful and always concerned about my Mother’s needs, the interior and grounds maintenance is exceptional. Dining provides healthy menus to choose from. Front desk staff is always friendly and helpful. Best decision we ever made was bringing my mom here.
