Hello there! As a mother of 2 I have firsthand experience of what is to raise great kids in challenging circumstances. With over 15 years of experience as a nanny and occasional sitter, I feel so proud and I am so happy to still be in close contact with some of my "little ones" that are now graduating high school and even college! I got trained in 5 different Evidence Based Prevention Programs that I was able to facilitate too for the past several years. I have been helping parents-caregivers and youth to grow together as a family by supporting each other goals with love and limits. My passion is to help children reach their whole potential in their different developmental stages. I have all my clearances and trained in CPR and First Aid. Hopefully, we get the chance to meet in the flesh so you can know more about Read more me. I am ready to go back to this fulfilling and meaningful career. For the past couple years, I used to teach Spanish to several kids in your children's age. Sadly, I could not say goodbye to my kiddos since everything closed -as you know. I was also working as a substitute staff support in North Penn School District, but that also came to a sudden ending, last March. Since I do not think the schools will come back as before, I am considering go back to the nanny/sitter position again. I have many years of experience working with kids and parents, since I also became a certified Parenting Coach. As you can see, I am a responsible, trustworthy adult. I am afraid that for now, I am only available for -Sporadic- sitter jobs including sporadic weekend’s overnight care since I work Mon-Fri from 8 to until 3 30 pm. Thank you for your time. Keep safe. Senora America

America worked with our family last summer. Our twins were 12 and entering 6th grade at the time. She was absolutely incredible. She provided consistent structure for the kids as well as a lot of fun. She's an amazing cook too! Any family that hires America will be a very lucky one. We're happy to provide a reference via phone or email for America. -Laura & Mike
