Hello! My name is Florencia, and I am originally from Argentina. I have a diverse background in child care and education that allows me to offer a unique and engaging experience as a sitter. I hold a degree as a music teacher, and for over five years, I’ve worked with children of all ages, from toddlers in kindergarten to teenagers in primary and secondary schools. I have also gained experience in caring for children with special needs, including those with attention deficits and disabilities. In fact, I have taken courses in fine motor skills development and sign language, which enables me to communicate and engage with children in creative and supportive ways. One of my passions is to combine physical development with creative play. As a certified personal trainer, I love incorporating fun physical activities that help children develop motor skills while having fun, such as obstacle courses, coordination games, Read more or imaginative movement activities tied to music and art. I also create sensory games and activities tailored to children with specific needs, like matching colors, simple puzzles, and rhythmic activities, all of which help with focus and motor control. On top of this, I was an au pair for a year, and I can provide a letter of recommendation from that experience. My time as a nanny and music teacher has helped me become flexible, patient, and highly attentive to the needs of each child. Whether your child loves art, music, or just needs an extra hand with their daily routines, I bring a warm, creative, and educational approach to every family I work with. I look forward to connecting and providing a nurturing and enriching experience for your children!
