Alayna, Owner and Founder

 

Hi, I’m Alayna — owner and founder of Patch Children’s Thrift Boutique.

What started as a small Instagram shop and a love for thrifting quickly turned into something much bigger: a community-centered space for families to shop sustainably, save money, and feel welcomed. After spending years in hospitality, I realized my passion wasn’t just helping people — it was creating something meaningful for families right here on the Central Coast.

As a mom myself, I understand how quickly kids grow and how expensive life can feel. That’s why Patch was built to make quality children’s clothing, gear, and everyday essentials more accessible without sacrificing style, cleanliness, or care. Every item in our store is thoughtfully curated with the goal of giving pieces a second life while helping families stretch their budgets a little further.

Patch is more than a thrift store to me. It’s a place rooted in community, sustainability, and connection. Whether you’ve been shopping with us since the beginning or are stopping in for the first time, I’m so grateful you’re here and proud to grow alongside the families who support this dream every day.
