Meet Sylvia

  • Speaks English, French, and Spanish
  • Comfortable with pets

Hi! I’m a 27 year old college student at Columbia! I’m originally from San Diego, CA & the Tijuana, BC area in Mexico. I’m CPR and First Aid Certified, speak English, Spanish, & conversational French. I have been caring for children for a little more than 10 years! I am the best at pretend play, board games, crafts, singing and dancing with the kiddos. I clean up after all our activities which I try to make educational and fun. I’ve care for multiple (10+) children at a time, special needs children, sick children, children from 10 weeks - 15 years old, and have also worked in a daycare setting environment. I have a lot of references I’d be delighted to provide, including my latest long term position. I can pick up and drive around with your children, have a valid drivers license, can tutor, help with homework. I truly love Read more children and their company, I enjoy the flexibility of my profession and difference between a 9-5 job. I am really excited to find a family that will be the best fit for me and hope to soon be the best fit for someone else! I want to provide the best service possible without a transactional experience. Thank you so much for taking the time to review my profile!
