I’m a creative and caring teen with a love for kids and helping others. I enjoy singing and am happy to teach children songs or sing them lullabies to help them feel calm and safe. I also love drawing, cooking, and making music, and I’m always excited to share fun and creative activities with kids. I’m confident with writing, video, design, and speaking foreign languages, and I’m always open to learning more. I take my responsibilities seriously and always do my best to create a fun, respectful, and safe environment.
I have a fascination for childhood education including first aids training with a specialization in first years obtained during 6y at Peru and Spain in Emilia Barcia Boniffatti and Intermunicipal del Penedes Schools.
Over these 5 years I've worked with childrens from 4 months to 3yo, being part of their development and the obtainence of the walking and communication skills and potty training.
As a babysitter I work for love and kindness towards children putting them as a first priority.
I use to engage with children treating them with respect and authonomy considering their necessities and nature working with parents as a team.
I prefer to use strategies from different education authors as Montessori, Waldorf, Aucouturier and knowledge from different psychologist authors as Skinner, Piaget, Bandura and Vigotsky- as authonomy, daily tasks and home participation, symbolic game, behavioral charts, observation and imitation -all considering the children's necessities.
I also love spending time with children to be more than a sitter, but part of the family so is natural for them being under my supervision.
