Hello! Everyone, I would like to introduce myself. My name is Elena Garcia. I am from Mexico City. I used to be a social worker in my country. I worked many years in Mexico with children. I like to bake, dance and sing. I love to spend time with children. I have learned a lot of things from them. I have been living in Lethbridge since 2009. I have been married for 16 years. My husband works as Health Care Worker; he loves to work with people. We have a daughter; she is 12 years old. She is a lovely girl who loves to spend time with children; she likes to play with them. She loves animals (she has a little hamster); she wants to be an exotic animal veterinary when she grows up.
When my daughter was born, I didn’t want to be separated from her, so I didn’t go to work. I really love to spend time with her, now she is a teenager, and I have decided to return to the workforce by providing childcare in my home. I live in the north side of Lethbridge. I like to plan different activities according with the interests of the children. I have a clean yard where the children can play safety. My menu for children is based on the Canadian Food Guide. My day home is open Monday-Fridays to 7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. I have my Level 1 (Early Childhood Educator). I have my First Aid and CPR recently updated. I chose to work with a licensed agency to have the benefit of the all supports offered for myself and the families I will serve. I hope once you meet me you feel confident knowing that your child will be nurtured, respected and receive quality care and attention. My goal is to ensure each child enrolled in my program feels comfortable, loved and free to explore and learn.
