Hello families
My name is Leticia. I'm a 24 years old Spanish girl. I studied 'English teacher for children' and I'm currently working as an extra activities English teacher in the afternoons. As the job is only few hours per week and it's not enough I decided that I want to come back to London.

I have experience with children:
- During my practices at school 2 months with children between 3 and 12 years old.
- One year as an Au Pair in Surrey taking care of a 18 months old boy. Being with him from 8 am till 6pm Monday to Friday. Going to play-groups, parks, arranging play-dates, cooking for him and playing all kind of games. I did also teach him to speak English because his parents are Polish and he couldn't say a word.
- After this, I moved to London with another lovely family to take care of their two boys (3 and 4 years old). Dropping and picking them from nursey and school, cooking for them aswell, helping them with their homework ...
- During that time I was also doing some babysits to different families some evenings and sometimes on Saturdays morning.
- I also works on different punctual events in Spain as Christmas, School holidays ... I prepare different kind of activities/games for children of all ages on different academies.
- I used to take care of my little cousins also during the summers.

I'm not OFSTED registered but you could talk with the families I have been working for. I really think the most important to work with children is to love them snd enjoy the time with them. I love to see how tgey learn and have with me. They can always change my grey days with their smiles.

If you think I can be the person you are looking for or need to know more about me, please don't hesitate to contact me.

Thanks in advance
Leticia
