I am college educated, I currently have my associates and am working on my bachelors online part time. I would like to clarify that I am only taking classes online so I have open availability during the week and my schooling will not interfere with my attendance what so ever. I do love to cook, I am more than willing to do some light housekeeping. I have references and experience with children of all ages including infants. I have experience as a youth councelor ( so I can plan lots of fun activities with your children), teacherd assistant (so I can help with homework) and as a full time nanny. I would love to get the opportunity to meet with you and your family, and to hopefully be included as a reliable extra set of hands while you are busy at work. I am the big sister type of nanny. I am fun but firm, and I always make sure they follow the rules. I will be a friend to your child while maintaining the level of respect they should have for their caretaker. I love to see children happy and knowing that I took part in putting a smile on their face by partaking in their favorite activities makes my day.      Valid Driver's License: Yes  Has a Vehicle: No  Can Swim Well: Yes  Smoking Status: Non-Smoker  Comfortable with pets:   Languages spoken: English, English, Spanish    My Nationality: Puerto Rican  Background Check:   Eligible to work in the U.S.:   Civil Status: Single  Religion/Spiritual Practice: Christian        Work Experience & Education Background   3 years experience, 4 references I have worked for 4 families full time over the past few years some of my responsibilities includin the following: Prepared and fed meals Changed diapers Gave baths and dressed children Played with the children ( i. e.
