About Bernardita
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
Dear families, I am proficient in both Spanish and English. As a mother of two grown daughters and two grandchildren, my passion lies in nurturing education and recognizing the complete nature of a child. I draw inspiration from Martha Gerber's REÍ and Rudolf Steiner's Waldorf Education. I am known for my warm and positive demeanor, and I find great value in the principles outlined in "Simplicity Parenting" and "Nonviolent Communication," as well as the insights shared in "The Soul of Discipline." I take pleasure in engaging in play, exploring nature, and creating crafts using natural or artistic materials together.

When I first moved to this country, I was overwhelmed by the challenges of settling into a new environment while trying to ensure my daughter received the best care possible. Finding Ita was a true blessing during this transition. From the very beginning, she made us feel incredibly safe and supported, which was invaluable at that time. Ita brought a unique blend of creativity, fun, and attentiveness to her caregiving role. She had an innate ability to engage my daughter in activities that were both educational and entertaining. Her attention to detail was remarkable, whether it was preparing nutritious meals or planning engaging activities, she consistently went above and beyond to ensure my daughter was well cared for. Even years later, now about a decade after we first met, we still keep in touch. I truly recommend Ita to any family in need of a dedicated, creative, and compassionate caregiver.
