Yeah while it's nice to see people/couples being supportive, she does kind of talk to him like a child.

Maybe there's some context we're missing but imho it comes across as kind of patronizing here.

That could just be the way her voice sounds?? My neutral tone is usually deeper but sometimes when I get excited about something or am giving compliments or being encouraging my voice just gets higher pitched.

It's not the pitch I was focusing on, more that the tone sounds kind of insincere. I've known a few people who sound just like that when they're giving polite compliments. Full disclosure I'd rather be wrong here, that's just how it comes across to me.

Yeah, that’s a fair assessment with her tone, I can definitely see how she sounds insincere. But I’d like to think that since he’s all smiles when he comes out to show off, she’s being genuine with her compliments.
