Hi! My name is Sydney, I've always had a heart for working with children, and I bring a blend of personal experience, professional training, and hands-on childcare background. I'm a certified Occupational Therapy Assistant, which has given me a strong foundation in child development, sensory needs, emotional regulation, and the power of purposeful play. I've worked closely with children of all ages and abilities, helping them grow in confidence, independence, and motor skills. In addition to my clinical experience, I've had the joy of working in several childcare settings. I've been a kids' camp counselor, provided after-school care assistance, and previously worked as a nanny for two children. I'm also a mom to a sweet 13-month-old son (pictured below is a few family photos), which is why I've chosen to stay home with him during this season, and I'm excited to offer childcare in a loving home environment where other little ones can grow, play, and thrive alongside him.
I cannot recommend Sydney enough as a caregiver! She is incredibly attentive, patient, and genuinely loving toward the children in her care. From the start, she built a strong connection with my child, making them feel safe, seen, and valued. Sydney is dependable and communicates clearly, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. She’s also great at engaging kids—whether it’s through creative play, outdoor time, or calming routines. Her natural warmth and gentle personality are evident in everything she does.
