I started nannying and babysitting when I was in High School and although I don't have any children of my own I enjoy spending time with children and feel very comfortable around them. Besides nannying and babysitting I had a work-study job as a Team Leader for Jumpstart assisting and implementing learning sessions for preschool children. I attended Roosevelt University, I have my bachelor in Hospitality and Tourism. I live in Elmhurst, IL. I am fluent in Spanish and English.I don't have any pets of my own but I like dogs and cats. Outside from the experience it is also my goal to do everything in my power to accommodate parents and children to make sure everyone is comfortable and happy.

Margarita petsat for our 11 year old chocolate lab last weekend, and everything went perfect. We appreciated her flexibility to come by and meet us, given the minimal notice we had to work with. She was very friendly and easy to talk to, and thorough in her upfront questions, as well as her daily report that she left for us. She was responsible for feeding, playing, walking and medication, and my dog was equally excited to see her when she stopped by to return the key after we returned. We will definitely be using Margarita again in the future!
