Imaculada $15 per hour for 1 child
I have over 6 years of experience with children. I am patient, caring, creative, reliable, responsible, organized, and very flexible. I enjoy playing, singing, listening to music, doing activities, dancing, preparing recipes with the children, taking care of their clothes, and much more. I have worked as a nanny with children aged newborn to 7 years. I was a literacy teacher and also have experience as a catechist for children aged 4 to 12 years. Currently, I care for two very affectionate and energetic children, spending time creating and playing indoor and outdoor games, trying to stay as much as possible away from technology, close to nature, books, and time for imagination, learning, and creativity. I have training related to education, such as: early childhood educator, nanny training, childcare assistant, pedagogy, and first aid. I love caring for and being around children.
