Ms. Sydney (Kentucky)
/I joined Seminole Sitters when I moved to Tallahassee to get my Master’s degree, but now live in Bowling Green, Kentucky. I’m happy to babysit there, or anywhere within a two-hour radius if travel costs can be covered!
Hometown: Clarksville, TN
Favorite Crayola color: Coral
Background: I am currently attending Florida State University, pursuing my master's degree in social work. I have provided group childcare in two fitness center settings, been a part-time nanny who assisted with transportation to/from school and homework, been a substitute teacher in a Montessori Academy, and provided occasional, date-night babysitting for three years. These positions have given me a chance to work with children from the age of 2 months old to 15 years old.
I have experience working with children with special needs (developmental delays and ASD) and watching over pets while in the home as needed. I have been trained in Seizure Recognition and First Aid by Epilepsy Florida.
She’s cared for children as young as: 2 months old
Future plans: I plan on becoming a therapist after earning my degree.
When she’s not babysitting: I’m usually attending class or traveling.
