A little bit about me

Hello, My name is Carolina, I am 26 years old. I was born and raised in Uruguay. My native language is Spanish. I moved to the United States back in 2013. I am a creative person, so this led me to attend Santa Barbara City College as a Theater Arts major. Currently I am attending SDUIS as a Communication major undergrad. As a childcare provider, I enjoy sharing my love of the outdoors and creativity with kids. I have three years of experience including babysitting to two amazing kids ages 4 and 6 (Uruguay), assisting a preschool class with my mother, she had a total of 15 children aged 2 to 3, babysitting to two older kids ages 7 and 10 (Au pair program, New Jersey). I think it's important to provide children with a fun, fulfilling and enriched environment. I am an enthusiastic, trustworthy, caring, and responsible person and look forward to meeting you and your family!.
