A little bit about me

My name is Ambar I’m 19 years old and I’m from Venezuela. I have experience taking care of children from 6 month to 10 years. My first language is Spanish and my English is low now. I’m looking for a family that help me to practice and improve my English and get a good cultural exchange. Definitely, I could teach Spanish to the children. I’m responsible, reliable and active person. I really love children and taking care of them is a pleasure for me. Also I am a chef and I feel glad to cook if the family need it. Feel free to ask me whatever you want. Thanks for reading me and I hope to hear from you soon.

A little bit about me

Hello! I have been a babysitter for a few families. I helped care for and watch children ages 1 to 11. I currently babysit a 1, 6, and 9 year old. I am currently available most mornings. I read to them and with them (I love reading and think it's very important to do), transported them, helped them prepare for bedtime, created a fun and safe environment for them, and participated in various games and outdoor activities. I also love animals. I was an assistant dance teacher at my dance company throughout high school. I helped teach young children dance and gymnastics skills, aided with changing clothes and shoes, and assisted with cleanup. I absolutely love working with kids!
