About Rafaela

Hi! My name is Rafaela. I have a Red Cross certificate and six years of experience caring for children from 0 to 13 years old. I'm infant qualified and have worked with children both in Brazil and in the United States. I was an au pair for almost six months, taking care of a 1-year-old child -- she was 11 months old when I arrived. I also helped care for her newborn sister. Throughout my experience, I've cared for children of different ages, which helped me develop a lot of responsibility, patience, and a caring approach to childcare. I also worked with 6 children at the same time as a teacher in a day care in Everett In addition, I've also volunteered at churches in Brazil, always helping with activities involving children. I like working with kids because they make me so happy. I love learning something new with every child, whether it's patience, being more creative, or more understanding. They always make me laugh too, and I feel happier every day when I'm around them.
