If you have any other Child Care Experience we should know of, please describe them
As for the experience, there are 3 important anecdotes to highlight, the first is with Emiliano, who is currently 5 years old, and I have taught him to read and write and has had many advances; the second is with Laura, she is 4 years old, and I have been teaching her numbers, colors and the alphabet in English and she has learned it easily, she is a very intelligent child; and the third is in the Help Colombia Foundation, in which I recently had the opportunity to visit an orphanage. This experience was very rewarding because the children receive you with love and happiness despite not having a home, there I realized that family is one of the most valuable and important things a person can have.
