About Maria

Experience: 3 yrs

As a nurturing and responsible childcare provider with a decade of experience, I find great joy in supporting families and ensuring the well-being of children. My patient and friendly nature creates a warm and welcoming environment for the little ones in my care. I believe in open and respectful communication with parents and prioritize their preferred methods to discuss their child's day or any concerns that arise. Regarding household rules, I follow the parents' guidance and work in harmony with their established routines. When it comes to playtime, I love engaging children in outdoor sports and educational games that foster learning and creativity. My proficiency in English, Portuguese, and Spanish allows me to connect with children from diverse backgrounds. I hold a high school degree and have completed CPR training. In addition to childcare, I'm happy to assist with light housekeeping and travel-related tasks.

Maria came to us through a friend. She took care of our first child at 3 mos old. She was our very first babysitter. She was very thoughtful, very calm around our baby, and dependable. She would sing the sweetest lullabies as she rocked our baby to sleep. She has an amazing voice! As new parents, we were anxious about a lot, and she helped take a lot of that anxiety away. We knew she really loved our baby.
