Meet Laura

  • Speaks English and Spanish
  • Comfortable with pets

Hi! My name is Laura, I’m originally from Colombia and I moved here 1 year ago. I speak fluent English and Spanish. I’m a General Physician currently preparing for my US medical license exam. I’m CPR certified for both children and adults, and can administer medication as needed. I also have experience taking care of children with special needs. I genuinely enjoy spending time with kids and taking care of them. I also love animals so I will be totally fine if there’s a furry member of the family present!
