About Cynthia

Experience: 13 yrs

Hello! My name is Cynthia, and I am a mother who understands firsthand the importance of finding someone trustworthy, caring, and dependable to care for your children. I work full-time at an Elementary school and have Summers off, which allows me the opportunity to help other families during the Summer months. I have experience caring for children from toddlers to teenagers and am comfortable caring for up to three children at a time. I am CPR and First Aid certified and can assist with meal preparation, light housekeeping, transportation, and arts and crafts activities. I would love the opportunity to support your family this summer and be a positive, caring presence in your child's life.

I’ve known Cynthia for 13 years. She has been working with kids for the last 12 years, first in a co-op day care and then at a elementary School as a teacher aid, where she still works, among other things, helping kids with learning and other disabilities. She is passionate about her work, even if it’s sometimes so challenging. She has a lot of love to give, is patient, affectionate, has teacher experience and strategies. It’s not uncommon when we go out in public spaces to see kids running all happy and excited to hug her, or Ms. Cynthia, as they call her. She baby sat my daughters occasionally and other kids I know and I happily recommend her work! She is professional, super experienced and above well very caring!
