Hi all parents! Hola Padres! Here is an excellent sitter that could definitely help! I am available for week days and for occasionally date nights on the weekends. I have been sitting for kids in the 2mo-15 age range for 9 years now. I also have a degree in Psychology and worked in the Early Education field in a program for infants and toddlers. I am bilingual (English and Spanish) I always get along great with children and have tons of fun playing. I know and implement educational games based on the developmental age of your child. Open to work with kids with special needs. I have my own car, a wonderful driving record, and can easily travel to your home. References available upon request.
