About Sylvia

Experience: 12 yrs

Nurturing a child's curiosity and watching them reach new milestones is my greatest passion. With 12 years of experience and a graduate degree focused on Early Childhood Education, I provide professional, attentive care for up to three children. My background includes First Aid Training and CPR Training. I am patient, creative, and always approachable, whether we are playing board games, solving puzzles, or heading outside for physical activities. I am very comfortable enforcing your household rules to ensure consistency. I prioritize your preferences for communication, whether through verbal updates at pickup or regular texts throughout the day. I am also happy to assist with meal preparation and light housekeeping to support your family's routine. I look forward to partnering with you to create a safe, engaging, and joyful environment where your children can truly thrive.

We have you Sylvia for many years. She is pure magic with our children. My daughter has befriended her and come out of her shell and my son always has a wonderful time with her. My kids always look forward to their time with Sylvia and we just love her fully. Recommend her.
