I am a mother of a 16-year-old girl and a 9-year-old boy, with many years of experience caring for children aged 0 to 36 months. I have a background in Psychology and a deep passion for working with children. I love cooking, spending time outdoors, engaging in crafts, and telling stories. Since moving from Brazil six years ago, I have worked as a caregiver for elderly individuals while continuing to study child development. Recently, I earned certification from the Positive Discipline Association, and I firmly believe that respectful and positive communication fosters a safe and supportive environment for children to grow and learn. I love to laugh, always look on the bright side of life, and enjoy the company of both children and dogs.

Hello! My name is Thalya Velasco, and I am 30 years old. I have been working with children since I was 15, and I genuinely enjoy it. Over the past few years, I have primarily worked with infants and toddlers, but I am fond of children of all ages. When the weather is favorable, I enjoy taking the children outdoors, and when it is not, I engage them in puzzle-solving activities. In my leisure time, I enjoy hiking, reading, and spending time with my beloved pet. Please feel free to contact me for references or if you have any questions. Work Experience] - Group Leader, Girls Prep Bronx Middle School - Training Coordinator, Good Shepherd Services, Bronx - Parent Educator and Child Care Aide, Vibrant Emotional Health My responsibilities have included observing and documenting children's behavior, developing and implementing age-appropriate curriculum, and planning activities that foster their emotional and intellectual development. Additionally, I have completed several relevant training programs, including: - Mandated Reporter/Poison Prevention in Children - Safety When Home Visiting - CPR Certification - Adult Mental Health First Aid While my current position in social work does not require these specific certifications, I am happy to provide copies of them upon request. (These are older certificates, please keep that in mind.) Lastly, although I do not have children of my own, I have siblings who do, and while growing up, I observed my mother managing her work and childcare responsibilities. Childcare can be quite expensive, especially in a city like New York where the cost of living is high. I am willing to work within your budget to help alleviate the stress of childcare.
