Hello, my name is Sofía Álvarez; I have been married for 14 years and have a 9-year-old daughter. I love children and enjoy playing with them and doing fun activities. I was a nanny for three of my nieces and nephews from the time they were born and lived with them for many years. Our days included outdoor activities, fun games at home, baking, and arts and crafts for the little ones. I also cared for children as young as three months old at a daycare center in my home country. I conducted workshops on personality development tools—using acting, theater, and improvisation—for children (ages 3 to 9), teenagers, and adults back home. I speak Spanish and have a good command of English; I am learning more of the language every day and can communicate easily. I have my own vehicle. Since coming to the United States, I have cared for Read more children between the ages of 6 months and 9 years, and I can provide references from my work with these families. I am an honest, detail-oriented, cheerful, and proactive person, and I am deeply committed to those who place their trust in me. I have photos of the classes I taught in my home country should you need to verify this information, and I remain in contact with several parents of my former students, all of whom have always been very satisfied with my work. Thank you for reading my message, and I hope that, having done so, you would like to meet me. Have a wonderful week!

I have been so happy with Sofia and her interactions with my daughter. She’s worked with us since my daughter was 6months old and is still our nanny, but we have less hours for her during the summer time. I highly recommend Sofia. She is positive, playful, kind, respectful and comfortable with kids. She’s timely and responds quickly. English is her second language and we have had no issues communicating effectively and I love that she speaks Spanish to my daughter. I will happily continue to work with Sofia, she’s great.
