Hi, my name is Marcela I’m from Argentina and I speak fluent Spanish and I’m learning English. I offer childcare as of currently. I have three dogs and one cat that love kids! I have experience child care for five years,and especially raising my own two daughters and my grandkid. I do enjoy having children color and play outside in the yard Because I feel like it’s very important to separate children from TV screens and iPads, and have them outside being creative and adventurous.
