Experience: 17 yrs
Hello, I'm a kind, compassionate, and caring person born and raised in Panama. As the oldest of my siblings, caregiving has always been a part of my day-to-day. My professional child care experience expands across all age groups (from newborns to teenagers), including kids with special needs. I have worked in a variety of positions (I've been an Au Pair, Nanny shared/private, tutor and teacher), both locally and internationally (Spain, Panama, Sint Maarten, & Boston). I have worked as an Au Pair and nanny in Spain/Boston; I volunteered as a TA at a Spanish immersion school in Boston; I have worked at an International School in Panama as a grade 4 homeroom teacher and a shadow teacher for children with behavioral, developmental, and learning disorders; and I also volunteered at a Montessori daycare in Sint Maarten. These experiences helped me grow as a care provider. I loved teaching through play and exploration, and I love helping children reach their highest potential.

Alma helped us care for our daughter from about 1 to 1.5 years old. We ended up moving from the city which is why we couldn't keep Alma on as our nanny. It was so clear after we met Alma in person that she was the right fit for our family. Our daughter was seriously mesmerized when Alma sang a sweet song while wiping her face. It was love at first sight! Alma was reliable, punctual, personal and super warm. We would definitely hire her again and recommend her to other families!
