About sylvia
Experience: 15 yrs
Nurturing young minds is more than a job for me; it's a passion. My journey into childcare began with positive babysitting experiences and a deep desire to positively impact children's lives. With 15 years of experience, I offer patient, creative, and friendly care. I hold a college degree, along with First Aid and CPR Training. I'm comfortable enforcing household rules and enjoy playing board games, puzzles, and educational games. I am happy to help with cooking and meal preparation. I communicate through written daily reports, regular updates via text or phone call, and always follow your preferred method. I'm comfortable caring for one child at a time. I would love to bring my calm and imaginative energy to your family!
Most recent review
Sylvia took care of our baby girl from newborn to 18 months when she started daycare. Sylvia's caregiving style is warm, empathetic, and natural - she is the type of person where you can tell immediately that they loves babies and has that natural way with them that some people have innately. Sylvia even took care of our senior, special-needs furbaby when we needed. Sylvia was always on time, had good communication, and was understanding with us, as nervous, first-time parents texting her constantly. Sylvia even dropped everything one day when she was not scheduled to work and came to look after the baby when our senior dog's health took a turn for the worse, so I could be with the dog in her last few hours and say my goodbyes. Sylvia was the first person I called in my time of need, and she was there for me without question, which exemplifies the kind of person she is. We recommend Sylvia for the next family that is lucky enough to have her in their lives!
