About Maria

Experience: 5 yrs

Hello family! My name is Maria. Known as Malu, and I'm from Brazil. I describe myself as an energetic, flexible, patient, and communicative person and I love to dig through the kid's imagination and create an environment where we can have fun and discover new things together. I started working with kids back in my home country, where I babysat two babies, worked at kids' birthday parties developing games and activities and later I also worked as a full-time nanny for a 3-year-old for over a year. After this experience, I moved to America and worked as an au pair for over a year taking care of a 6-month-old baby and a 2-and-a-half-year-old. I'm glad to say I'm still in touch with the family, and I still travel sometimes to take care of their children. I would love to connect and see if I can be a good fit for your family!

I hired Maria to babysit my two boys (18mo and 6yo). She was absolutely amazing with both of them. My oldest kept saying how much fun he had with her. She got here early to learn about the kids and didn’t rush out the door once I got back, like many babysitters do. We got to know each other and we now will be hiring her on a weekly basis. I highly recommend her if you need a punctual, flexible, responsible and very kind babysitter.
