Lucia $25 per hour for 1 child
My name is Lucia, I'm 20 years old, soon to be 21! I'm from Colombia, my first language is Spanish. I went to the French school in Bogota, Colombia, so I can also speak fluent French. I've been working with kids since I was 16. I worked multiple times at a very prestigious summer camp in Colombia. Children were between 6 and 17 years old. I know multiple activities to entertain children and love having fun with them! I love cooking, I'm super nice, I'm calm and patient. I've taken multiple courses about handling stressful/complicated situations with children. I did gymnastics most of my life so I love doing motricity activities! I'm currently doing my bachelor in Fashion Design, so everything that has to do with art and creativity, that's also my game!
