Hello Parent/s I am an individual who enjoys nature, actively practices yoga, chi gong, and likes to learn the medicinal properties of plants. I have studies under the tutelage of an indigenous medicine woman the art of giving birth, I am also fluent in spanish, fairly fluent in portuguese, and basic knowledge of french. In my previous experiences I have taught literacy through art from K-5, in NYC. I have babysit on and off for 7 years. I live in Temascal neighborhood and would love to babysit again. My partner has a 2 year old boy whom I love dearly and teaches me everyday about the world. My schedule is very flexible.
