Hello, my name is Sofía Álvarez, I am Peruvian, I have been married for 12 years and I have a 7-year-old daughter, I love children, I like to play with them and do fun activities. I was a nanny for three of my nephews since they were born and lived with them for many years. Outdoor activities, fun indoor games, baking, and art for young children filled our schedules for several years. I also took care of children from 3 months and older in a daycare in my country. I taught courses (workshops) on personality development tools through acting, theater and improvisation for children (3Y - 9Y), adolescents and adults in my native country. I speak Spanish and my English is fine. Every day I learn more of the language and I can communicate easily. I have my own car. In the USA I have taken care of small children Read more between 6 months and 9 years old, I have references from my work with these families. I am an honest, detail-oriented, jovial, proactive person and very committed to the people who trust me. I am available and can work from early morning full time. I have photos of my classes in my country in case you need to confirm the information and I am still in contact with several parents of my students who have always been very happy with my work. I appreciate you reading my message and I hope you want to get to know me after reading it. Have a good week!

I have been so happy with Sofia and her interactions with my daughter. She’s worked with us since my daughter was 6months old and is still our nanny, but we have less hours for her during the summer time. I highly recommend Sofia. She is positive, playful, kind, respectful and comfortable with kids. She’s timely and responds quickly. English is her second language and we have had no issues communicating effectively and I love that she speaks Spanish to my daughter. I will happily continue to work with Sofia, she’s great.
