A little bit about me

Hi there, my name is Ariana Marroquin, I´m 25 years old and live in Dallas Tx. I am only daughter, my parents always support me in growing professionally. I graduated from the university Escuela Normal "Miguel F. Martinez" at Monterrey with a bachelor in Preschool Education. I currently work at a college, teaching first grade preschool, but I am preparing myself to grow professionally and live a new experience where I get involved with my career. I have had many jobs that involver taking care and being with children. I have been babysitting pretty since I was 18 years old. When I was 15 I was in a church camp, we held "summer camps" where we did many dynamics with the 6 year old children.
I worked since I graduated I have worked in different kindergartens, just like when I was studying in the afternoons I gave support classes to kindergarten, primary and secondary.
In my free time I like to do exercise, reading books (about love, college, education, bible), listen music, etc.

A little bit about me

I pride myself on being adept at following instructions, understanding that attention to detail is of paramount importance in childcare. While I am an independent caregiver, I prioritize communication with parents, always seeking confirmation and providing updates as frequently as desired.

As an active babysitter, I engage with infants through delightful songs and plan a variety of active or educational activities. My approach is to foster an environment that encourages growth and development, steering away from excessive screen time. With a wealth of experience, I've cared for children across all age groups, ranging from infants to 13 years old, ensuring a comprehensive understanding of their unique needs at different stages of development.

A little bit about me

I love children but do not have any of my own yet. I grew up babysitting all my little cousins and for lots of family friends. Always took care of kids during VBS as well as teaching the preschool Sunday school class for a year. I worked for Campus Club which is a before and after school program for school age children. I helped them with homework, played games outside as well as arts and crafts time. I worked at the Fort Leavenworth Child Development Center for a year caring for children newborn through about 5 years old. I worked at a daycare for a summer as the Toddler Room teacher. Outside of childcare I’ve worked in the hospitality industry, I’ve done merchandising, I spent the last 3 years as a scheduler/dispatcher for an electrical company and learned an office job is just not for me. So I’ve been doing seasonal travel work for the last 7 months and am ready to be back in Texas near family! I love to clean/organize and cooking isn’t a problem.
