My name is Christina Vargas, I am a graduate from the University of Kentucky with a B.S in Merchandising, Apparel and Textiles and a minor in International Business. I am fluently bilingual both verbal and written in Spanish and English. I have just recently moved to the Scottsdale area and am looking for a mutually fitting position as a nanny for a great family and babysitting gigs for nights and weekends! Most recently, I nannied for a family of four amazing boys ages 8 months, 7 (ADHD), 12 (Autistic) and 13 (Autistic) for just over a year and a half. My responsibilities at said family included: long hours from 55-70 hours a week, pick-up and drop-offs, meal prep, homework assistance, extracurricular activities (gymnastics, piano, Gymboree, track etc.), laundry and more. During my four years in high school, I tutored Spanish/English bilingual students from K to 3rd grade. Also, during my Read more time at the University of Kentucky, I attended to a daycare facility with bilingual children of Spanish and English from the ages of 2-12. I am a very energetic young woman who is always able to keep up with the kids. I always make sure to help them with anything they need from school work, preparing a meal, getting them to sleep.

Christina really gives my kids the attention they want. They've come up with fun dance and music games together. She keeps them active but still respects their speed. She's super helpful. The kids really love her.
