Darcy Borroto was born in Cuba, in the city of Camagüey, where she grew up and lived until  she finished her university studies. After many years of studying healthcare, she earned her medical degree at the University of Medical Sciences of Camagüey, Cuba.

Upon graduating, Darcy was selected to work in Caracas, Venezuela, where she lived for two years. There, she worked in clinics and hospitals, treating patients, especially children.

In addition to treating children, Darcy gave talks to children about good hygiene and disease prevention in the city’s poorest neighborhoods. There, Darcy realized that one of her passions was not only being a doctor, but also helping with child development.

A few months after arriving in Austin, Texas, Darcy joined the Olas team of early childhood educators. During these years at Olas, Darcy has become a great Spanish teacher whom the children adore.

In addition to learning a lot of Spanish with maestra Darcy, the children learn about hygiene, healthy habits, and making the right decisions to stay safe and avoid accidents.

Al Olas School we are ALL safer and healthier thanks to maestra and doctora Darcy.
