A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Ana and I'm seeking a part time (but flexible with more hours when needed) position as nurturing young children is one of my greatest joys. With five years of experience caring for children aged 5mo -10yo , my passion stems from a genuine desire to foster growth and development, inspired by positive experiences in previous teaching roles. I love engaging children with both indoors and outdoors and providing educational activities. I love music so there will be a bunch of dance parties during my time spent with the children.

I have completed Early Child Development Coursework and look forward to doing more in the future. I am also trained in First Aid and CPR. I am happy to assist with light housekeeping and always clean up after the children I am caring for. I am also fluent in English & Spanish. I do not drive but I’m more than happy to bring children places anywhere within walking distance.

References upon request.

Look forward to hearing from you!
