Hi my name is Katherine Ortiz I am 23 years old. I am very interested in your job posting. I offer schedule flexibility: I can work AM and/or PM hours. My help is available Mon-Sun. I can stay later in the evening, work weekends and overnights. Days off from school, holidays and when parents are on a night out, etc. I currently live in Manhattan, NY. Besides Nanny/Babysitting services, I offer help with housekeeping, cooking, errands and laundry. I am a legal resident and can be paid on the books. A little bit of my history: I grew up in a household where I was the oldest sibling out of 5 brothers and sisters. At an early age I had to be the leader of the bunch. By the age of 13 I was picking up my siblings from school going home to prepare meals for all of us and Read more making sure we all did our homework. My mother was a single mother and that left me with a lot of responsibilities. I also had to do chores and make sure the house was tidy before our mother got home from work. By the age of 16 I was watching over my 1 year old sister Olivia. I was responsible for putting her to bed every night and getting her ready every morning before school. I speak English and Spanish fluently and wouldn’t mind teaching your kids Spanish if you would like. I am not afraid of hard work. I am very reliable, creative and active. I love to keep kids entertained with fun activities. I consider myself very nurturing and caring. Health is also a big part of my life I love to cook healthy meals. For the past 4 years I have been working in the hospitality industry. It has made me better because I have dealt with many personalities and challenges. I learned to think fast on my feet. I am very friendly and always keep a smile on my face. I’d be happy to provide references as well as meet or chat on the phone. Looking forward to hearing back from you, wish you best of luck on your search.
