Camila M.
- 20 years paid experience
- 13 miles
My name is Camila, and I have 20+ years of experience in childcare and tutoring. I have worked in daycares and privately with several families. I am professional and responsible in my work, using my background in education as a baseline for all my work. I obtained my associates in education from Essex County College in 2008, using my education to tutor kids from K-6th grade in all subjects. I specialize in Spanish tutoring, offering children to learn and communicate with more people around them. Having a second language on a resume has shown to increase chances of being hired in any field, so having your child build a solid foundation could go a long way in their future. I have been, and continue to be, a mother for 4 wonderful children the oldest being 25. I try not to take all the credit, but my children have shown everyone what wonderful people they are. CPR trained. Full vaccinated. Excellent references and clean driving record.

Caring for my younger siblings and students in my community influenced my decision to become a caregiver. Participating in activities such as summer enrichment classes and daycare learning centers fueled my passion even more, and those experiences taught me that I am passionate about helping people and improving the daily lives of those in need of care. Supporting my students taught me patience, compassion, and problem-solving skills. I learned how to deal with problems quickly and effectively in order to keep them healthy and safe.

I have fewer personal experiences. I have two little brothers one whom is 13 yrs old and the other whom is 18 yrs old now. I also have a 7 yr old nephew who lives with me. I have been watching over them when needed by my parents. I’m very familiar with infants, toddlers and big kids due to the fact that I’ve seen my brothers grow, I’ve changed their diapers, I’ve fed them, watched over them, entertained them, helped them when needed throughout the years. I also have work experience at Little Learners in Hackensack working with children from infants to 5 years old. I currently work as a nurse at st Clare’s hospital . I am also a student pursuing my bachelor’s in nursing. I look forward to meeting you and your family.
