Hi, my name is Valeria. I speak two lenguajes fluently, Spanish and English, I also have beginner korean and German. I studied at Baruch college with a major in international business and a minor in marketing. I am now doing my master degree however I am currently just doing research therefore I have all freedom when it comes to scheduling. I’ve been working as babysitter since 2018 with UrbanSitter and I’ve been a mentor and tutor for kids starting from preK all the way through 7th grade with some experiences in high school writing tutoring. I truly love to work with kids and pets, having experience with both. I have worked with a big range of ages and more than 15 long term families along the way. In my free time, I love to dance, learn languages, and travel. I would love to become part of your family and for you to become part of mine. I still occasionally work with families I worked for full time years ago.
