A little bit about me

Hello,
My name is Andres and I have been working in childcare for 12 years. I have my Masters in Early Childhood Education and am currently a step 11 in ORO. I have 2 children, a 3 year old daughter and a 9 month old son. As much as I've learned working in childcare, I've learned mostly from being a father. Children teach you so much, and I'm still learning. I enjoy the outdoors, art and sports. I'm very good with time management and I can manage multiple tasks at the same time. I've taught preschool and I can help get your child ready for Kindergarten. I maintain relationships with the parents of the children I've taught and babysit for them on occasion. I'm fun, energetic, professional, caring, and reliable. I hope I get the chance to help your family next!
