Hello. I am Erica, a twenty one year old Torontonian from a big Latin-Canadian family. As the eldest of six children, I have always taken care of my siblings and their friends, and so babysitting quickly became second nature. I am currently attending Ontario College of Art & Design for Graphic Design and I am a visual artist and musician. For the past five years, I have been working in retail as a sales associate and a manager, and I feel strongly that it is time for a change of environment. I am more than excited at the prospect of spending my days with little ones again. I love to paint and do other creative activities with children, including going to galleries, museums, and parks. Because I am so young, I bring a lot of energy and affection to my work, and am able to engage the kids in a fun, safe manner while also being a responsible and dependable employee. I am more than happy to take care of kids of all ages, and also have extensive experience working with twins and handicapable kids. With the summer fast approaching, I am looking for a family that needs full time help.
