I have been working with children for over 11 years. I have worked as a home based teacher and nanny/babysitter for about 5 years. I have taught Preschool at private schools, daycares, and at the public schools for over 5 years. I also was a Substitute Teacher at the public schools for a few years. I also have tutored and done homework help after school. I went to school for Early Childhood Education. I have a Bachelor’s degree in Early Childhood Education. And minored in Speech therapy and language development. I love fostering learning and helping children reach their full potential!

Raquel is such an amazing babysitter/nanny. She is able to keep my 2 year old engaged the entire day. My daughter will literally tell me to leave so she can play with Raquel. Raquel has improved my daughter's vocabulary significantly. She teachers her words, sounds, shapes, letters, animals, the weather and so much more. My dajghters imagination has also increased greatly by all the pretend play Raquel does with her. Raquel is just so amazing with my daughter and I'm so glad we found her. She is never on her phone during the day and even during my daughter's nap, she continues to check on her to make sure she is ok. I highly recommend Raquel!

Raquel was amazing with my boys. She came through at very short notice, arrived on time and kept the kids entertained all day. My 9 year old keeps asking for her...I'm sad we moved out of the neighborhood because I finally found a great sitter!
