Hi families! I'm Syriah, and I've been working with kids since I was 14-but my childcare journey began way earlier, when my youngest sister was born. That hands-on experience taught me so much about patience, creativity, and making sure kids feel loved, safe, and supported. Whether I was tutoring my peers or working as an Afterschool Specialist, I've spent tons of time with kids of all ages. From helping with homework to planning creative activities, I love jumping into their world! Whether we're racing cars, belting out Disney tunes, or rewatching Barbie's Princess Charm School for the millionth time, I'm all in. And as a self-proclaimed "girls' girl," a Disney mani-pedi, a fashion show, or crafting the next masterpiece is an ask away. Organized, dependable, and filled with energy to match your kids; My goal is to create a fun, safe, and nurturing environment where your kids can thrive. I can't wait to meet your family and bring some extra joy and creativity into your home!

Syriah cared for our two children, A (3 years old) and J (5 years old), with unmatched energy, creativity, and dedication. She always found new ways to keep them entertained and learning, whether it was through imaginative play, crafting activities or her special lesson plans. One of our children’s favorite moments with Syriah was snack time when she would prepare her famous "ants on a log" a fun and healthy treat that even had our hesitant eater asking for seconds! What stood out most was Syriah’s ability to go above and beyond in fostering a joyful and nurturing environment. For example, she created customized coloring pages featuring dinosaurs with messages like,“You are dino-mite!” These thoughtful touches encouraged creativity and fine motor skills while also instilling confidence and positivity in our children. Syriah didn’t just care for our kids she became an indispensable part of our family routine. She expertly managed bathtime, meal prep, light cleaning, and even took the initiative to organize lessons and activities tailored to each child’s interests. Her proactive approach made our lives so much easier, and her cheerful, can-do attitude brought warmth to every task. We can’t recommend Syriah enough, a true gem!
