Bilingual childcare professional dedicated to nurturing children’s growth, independence, and well-being.
What I'm looking for
I’m a compassionate, dedicated childcare and education professional with experience as a nanny, paraeducator, early childhood teacher, caregiver, and healthcare support worker. I support children’s development through child-led play, classroom support, and family communication, bringing bilingual English and Spanish strengths to every day.
I’ve cared for infants and toddlers full-time, helped implement a Montessori-inspired approach, and supported individualized education through IEPS. I’m also certified in CPR, BLS, First Aid, and QMAP medication administration, and I bring calm problem-solving, strong organization, and reliable caregiving to promote safety and confidence.
