I am Sylvia Dobbins, I am 50 years old and I have worked with children all of my life. I have babysat since I was 12 and worked with some famous families as well as local families. I am motivated to create a trustworthy and reliable relationship with my families. My passion for helping children goes far as I have been an elementary teacher for 25+ years and enjoy helping children grow. Two of my longest family bonds I have created was a 6 and a half year term with a family weekly and a 5 year term as needed monthly. I also have two children of my own and am very comfortable and work well with children. I have CPR certification, First Aid certification, authorized to give out medications, and am a mandated reporter which won't be necessary for you're wonderful family but I'll put it out there. :)
