About me

I was born in Manizales, Colombia. As the older one in my family, I was the support of my mother to raise my 5 siblings, while my mother was at work I was the one supervising my siblings, keeping them entertained, taking them to sports and to the playground, cookies for them, helped them with homework.

After high school studied law at night while I worked for the government during the day at the Education department in my city as a secretary. I worked in a law practice for 2 years. After graduating in 1999, I went to the States and fell in love, and through a friend, I got my first job as a nanny with a family from England. I loved the boy his parents were
very busy at work. I spoke to him in Spanish, kept him busy at the museums and playgrounds, cooked for him, and since then, I’ve been a nanny. I love to cook for them, help them reach milestones, support their families, and enrich their lives.

I love to cook with kids, do arts and crafts, help them with homework, read in Spanish, and go to museums and parks. Keep them busy with outdoor activities and board games when indoors.
Love to help raise kids with great values, respecting their elders, teachers, friends, and family members.
