About Ricardo

Hi families! A little bit about me, I love to spend time with family, play pickleball in my free time, and lastly I love watching and playing sports. I have 4 years of experience working with children from ages Tk-8th grade! I started out as a Youth Leader for the YMCA working with my own group of kids helping with homework, games, and social emotional learning. I was promoted to Assistant Supervisor for the ELP After School Program working closely to and building connections with families and their students within this program. I eventually moved up to the YMCA Main Supervisor position, then being responsible for over 200+ students with the intent to create a safe and fun learning environment. As of right now I am a Program Coordinator for the Chula Vista District! I'd describe my personality as easygoing, reliable, and patient My skills include that I am Mental Health Certified through the YMCA, I am CPR Certified, and I have good communication skills with children
