Greetings all! I am a young gal in her early 20's with lots of love and energy to give! Being a native Spanish speaker, I enjoy reading, writing, and speaking in Spanish. I also enjoy participating in sports and have a love for music. Ive played the flute for about 7 to 8 years throughout elementary and high school. I really enjoy the encounter with young children. I currently am well involved in the holistic field with a certification of Lymphatic Drainage Therapy and am looking into more windows of this beautiful industry. Though I've gotten a bit of a taste for a holistic approach, I am also involved in more administrative tasks like front desk work. I am a very careful person especially for the little ones !For the past 2.5 years, I took care of 2 dearest children- ages 6 to 9... duties included helping with hw, feeding, Read more park adventures, playdates, pick ups and drop offs, bedtime, snacks, coloring, puzzles etc.. I have just an all round about experience with children! I am a sensative and gentle person that approaches with patience and caution. I think that we learn most from children! Especially in spontaneous situations! Along with many things one learns from sitting, I believe the most important lesson learned is communication. Communicating is key between a child and young adult. I can say that communicating with young children has been such a great experience as it made me so much more cautious of the language I used and both my interpretation of communication as well as a child's perspective. Thanks!
