A little bit about me

Hola, soy Cindy! (Puedo cuidar en mi casa también)
En país tengo la mayoría de la experiencia adquirida cuidando niños, siempre crecí rodeada de ellos. Me encanta el aire libre, salir a caminar, la imaginación y leer. Soy una ex voleyballvista así que me encanta los deportes.
Soy firme cuando el momento lo amerita y dócil, y cariñosa. Y si dentro de mi pago está los quehaceres de la casa, lo hago! Soy muy servicial.

Solo denme la oportunidad, no los defraudaré!
