Hello there! My name is Valeria Hernandez, and I'm thrilled to introduce myself as your go-to babysitter, tutor, and camp counselor extraordinaire. With four years of hands-on experience, I have honed my skills in providing top-notch care, supervision, and education for children aged 4 to 12 years old. I am also certified in First Aid and CPR/AED and can show you my certification if requested. Babysitting has become not only a passion but also a rewarding journey for me. I believe in creating a safe, nurturing, and fun environment where children can thrive and express themselves freely. My primary goal is to ensure that your little ones are not just well looked after, but also engaged in age-appropriate activities that encourage their intellectual and emotional growth. As a tutor, I've had the opportunity to work closely with young minds, guiding them in various subjects and helping them develop essential study Read more habits and learning strategies. I take pride in fostering a positive and encouraging atmosphere, which allows children to build confidence and overcome any academic challenges they may face. In addition to babysitting and tutoring, I've had the pleasure of being a camp counselor. This experience has taught me the value of teamwork, leadership, and adaptability. I understand the importance of creating a sense of camaraderie among children, allowing them to forge lasting friendships and unforgettable memories during their time at camp. Whether it's assisting with homework, organizing creative arts and crafts projects, planning exciting outdoor activities, or simply being there as a caring and responsible presence, I am committed to providing the best care possible for your children. Safety is my top priority, and I am in progress of becoming re-certified in First Aid and CPR Parents often commend me for my patience, reliability, and ability to connect with children on a personal level. I believe that every child is unique, and I adapt my approach to meet each individual's needs. I am excited to continue my journey as a caregiver, mentor, and friend to your little ones. Watching them grow, learn, and flourish is the most rewarding aspect of what I do. Thank you for considering me to be a part of your child's life. I'm eager to meet your family and embark on this adventure together!
