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. 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. 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 job as a Behavior Technician, but I am very flexible and open to align our schedules to fit your children's needs. I am CPR certified, a non-smoker, and I have extensive training with children through my intensive course in ABA (Applied Behavior Analysis). I am working towards my goal of becoming a pediatric Occupational Therapist. 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!
