I am a responsible and caring person with experience working with children through my work as a nanny and as a psychology student. I currently live in the U.S. and have hands-on experience caring for toddlers in a daily routine, including meal prep, playtime, school routines, and ensuring a safe and structured environment. I am very organized, reliable, and calm under pressure. I enjoy working with people and children, and I am always focused on creating a positive and supportive environment. In my free time, I enjoy working out, staying active, and spending time outdoors. I am also very adaptable, open to learning new skills, and comfortable working in fast-paced environments.

I’m a preschool teacher with several years of experience caring for children of all ages, from newborns and infants to older kids. I’m fluent in both Spanish and English and passionate about creating age-appropriate activities that support learning and fun. I love doing arts and crafts, role-play games, cooking simple recipes with children, and having fun dance parties that keep them active and happy. I’m patient, responsible, and nurturing, always focused on creating a safe and positive environment. I’m also comfortable with basic household cleaning and have daily experience caring for dogs, including walking and feeding them. Families describe me as trustworthy, warm, and highly attentive to children’s needs.
