I'm a registered nurse and my last employment was working with pediatricians in a community clinic. I love spending time with children of all ages. I enjoy teaching children especially art, science, math and Spanish. I love healthy food, long nature walks and swimming. I have experience working with newborn twins, toddlers and middle schoolers. My references are excellent. I have my own car and clean driving record. I will commit to work only one job to limit exposure. I’m trained in infection control and I’m very conscious and careful about Covit. I’m fully vaccinated. I speak fluent German and very good Spanish. I’m an empty nester and not in a relationship, therefore being extremely flexible.
