Hi there! I have over 10 years of experience as a childcare provider working with children of all ages, from infants to children as old as 14. I was able to create amazing relationships with both children and parents. I am a college graduate with a BA in Psychology and Child Development. After graduating I worked in Madrid, Spain as an English teacher at a local elementary school. I worked with students from grades pre-K through 6th. Before my experience abroad, I worked as a nanny and babysitter for 9 years. I'm patient, friendly, love the outdoors, enjoy playing fun, active, and educational games. Working with children is truly my passion and I plan on incorporating that into a permanent career. I returned to the US to obtain my bilingual teaching credential while also working as a full-time nanny. I hope I get the chance to meet you and your Read more family!
