A little bit about me

Hello, hoping your day is going great,

My name is Cristina,
32y old, Mexican-Canadian,
I'm currently studying in San Diego
and I own a car.

I'm active, patience, I enjoy the outdoors, and creating new experiences, I appreciate the arts, all kind, architecture, dance, music, design.

I have a good relationship with very active kids.

I love interacting with kids because being part of their life and nurturing fulfills me, to give back, my life's purpose.

I actually design and build furniture pieces, I've mentioned this cus I'd like you to have an idea of the creativity I can bring.
I like all creative, adventurous and interesting.

My experience with children it's been 2 years when living in Mexico while studying, and 2 years when moving to Canada, in Canadá in 2015.
At a time I cared for 4 siblings, a 1y, 3, 7 and 9y old.
Whom I remember dearly. We had the time of our lives.

Thanks for reading me,

Please don't hesitate on reaching out for any question.

All the best.
Cristina L
