About Margarita

Experience: 1 yr

I'd describe my personality as outgoing, empathetic, and creative. I'm looking for a job that shows me the more challenging side of childcare while allowing me to bring out my inner child and make kids' days. My only goal here is to bring happiness to children while making parents' lives easier. I started working with kids when my baby sister was born. I have been helping take care of her for the majority of my life. When I was 14, I started to babysit children around my neighborhood. In my spare time, my passion is fitness. I love to run outside, and am working on beginning calisthenics. I am immersed in my studies, and I am studying to practice pediatric occupational therapy. One thing you should know about me is that I don't have a fully open schedule right now due to classes at NVCC and my part-time retail job, but I am very flexible and open to align our schedules to fit your children's needs. My skills include patience, adaptability, and safety-consciousness.

My two girls absolutely loved her. She taught them how to play uno, played outside with them, and helped them dress like princesses. My girls now ask when she is coming back and say she is Sister Margarita now. Very sweet and professional young lady!
