I am a caretaker of children because human connection and helping others to grow is where I shine brightest! I am routines-based and consistent by nature and love to interact verbally and playfully with children. I'm a very active person (swimming, rollerblading, biking, hiking, weights) so I'm happy to support with any outdoor/active time! I'm a seasoned educator of languages and literacy, and a mother of 18yo twins that was introduced to childcare growing up with my mother nannying out of our home. Home care support is included in my work b/c parents need those extra hands in the kitchen/laundry room! I grew up outside of Chicago, am doubly educated and have lived in or explored Mexico, Costa Rica and parts of Europe. I adore music and have an appreciation of all of the arts! I take a gentle and attuned approach to caretaking - paying close attention to the child's/babie's verbal and nonverbal cues. With toddlers and beyond, my approach aligns closely with Montessori methods.

Cyndy is absolutely amazing! She took care of our 14th month old over the weekend and we couldn’t have asked for a better babysitter. From the moment she arrived she was warm, attentive and incredibly engaging with our son. She planned a variety of fun activities that kept him happy and entertained and she went above and beyond providing regular updates and sending the sweetest pictures throughout the day. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in such loving hands!
