In case you don't know Sydney Leroux Dwyer is an old USWNT player and still plays for the Orlando Pride. She is also the mother of Cassius and Roux Dwyer. Man are they cute!
Sydney Leroux said that she had to pay more for nannies and babysitters then her NWSL salary! This is ridiculous! Luckily for Sydney, her husband (Dom Dwyer) has a base salary of $1.3 million dollars. But not all NWSL players with kids have this. Sydney Leroux Dwyer tweeted in twitter stating:
"I want to preface this by saying that I know my situation is different. That's why it's so important to me to advocate for other mothers and women in the NWSL who have children or want to have children and want to continue chasing their dreams. Far too often, we see women having to make a choice between motherhood and their career. It would be very sad to lose out on the talent we have because they feel like they can't do both."
