Hello , I’m an energetic 50 year old, with Mexican/Italian citizenships but I lived in the States for the past 12 years . I’m a mom of 3 children. Currently I’m a contractor with a very demanding work that takes me more than a regular full time including weekends, that is why I’m looking for an other kind of job that fits me better in this chapter of my life. I really love and enjoy kids and I miss being around them. Even if my recent babysitting experience is more like volunteering at church, I babysit occasionally a baby and his 3 years old sister. Please consider to have a chat by zoom or in person to get to know me better. I think I can offer a lot because I love to serve. I had the opportunity to help families with their baby’s and the elderly. In my church Read more I have also been a volunteer, especially to children with special needs.
