I am a 37 year-old early childhood teacher from Chile. While studying during college, I spent a summer babysitting for a family whose mother needed assistance watching a 2 year-old while caring for her newborn. I was responsible for clothing and feeding the child and enjoyed doing some activities with him. I worked in my home country following my studies as a rural public school teacher for a year and a half. My nine students ranged in age from 4 to 6. After that, I came to the United States under a work visa to work as a Spanish teacher in a private school in Massachusetts for one year and a half, developing activities for toddlers. After I finished my contract with the school, I worked as a babysitter for infants and toddlers. Until I moved to the United States (March 2024), I taught in a Catholic school.

I did remote teaching during the pandemic and am comfortable leading online classes. I love storytelling. I took online classes in storytelling and it is one of my student’s favorite activities.

Hi parents! I'm Laura, and early childhood education has been my passion since I was 16! That's when I knew I wanted to dedicate my life to working with children. It all started with babysitting for my next-door neighbor, which led to volunteering in schools and spending more time around children throughout high school. In college, I gained invaluable experience observing classrooms, creating lesson plans, and learning from my mistakes under the guidance of experienceteachers. In my early 20s, I began my journey as a nanny, and it was then that I truly discovered the joy and fulfillment of being a caregiver. I love helping parents simplify their lives, seeing children happy and engaged, and creating successful, joyful days. Being around children, seeing their smiles, and engaging in creative activities brings me immense satisfaction! I'm reliable, have my own transportation, and especially love doing arts and crafts with kids. I'm excited to connect with families who are looking for a caring and dedicated individual.
