A little bit about me

Hi! This is Luciana, 28 yo from Argentina. I am looking for a position to start ASAP. I have over 10 years of experience working with kids. I am a special and early childhood education teacher. I was an au pair in Hingham for 2 years with the same family taking care of 3 boys (6 mo, 2 yo and 5 yo) and also worked during another year for different families with multiple children (with references upon request). I love kids of all ages and enjoy playing with them, doing homework and helping with their activities and chores. I also have a driver license with a clean record for more than 10 years, but don’t have my own car. Hope I can find the right family to start working with soon!

A little bit about me

Hi, I have experienced babysitting from my cousins, also with my siblings, and now for my kid, who is turning 5 this year. I love kids; that’s why sometimes I borrow babies and toddlers from my cousins and friends. It gives me joy if I’m around the young ones. So I am hoping I can have this kind of work.

I love painting, handcrafting, and photography, and I do hair and makeup for a side hustle, some of which would benefit your kids, especially in handcrafting and painting.

I also taught my daughter to read at 1 year old and write at 2 years old, and now that she is 4, she can read a paragraph or a storybook, and I can assure you that I can help your kids read basic words.
