A little bit about me

Hello future family!

My name is Synthia, but please call me Syndie! A little bit about me - I'm 30 years old and LOVE all things fun and creative!

For nine years, I have been a nanny/executive + family assistant/house manager. My approach to nannying as well as being a personal/executive assistant is to lead with my eccentric and creative spirit, but also with kindness, empathy and compassion. I am organized (LOVE color coding!), great with vendors and customer service situations, deeply loyal, charismatic, and have a way of making the best out of any situation with my supreme adaptability. No task is to big or small and thrive where I can challenge myself!

I look forward to meeting you!
