About Maria

Nurturing young minds is my passion. With one year of experience caring for children aged newborn to 11, I'm dedicated to creating a fun and supportive environment for your little one. My background includes Early Child Development coursework. I'm comfortable enforcing household rules while engaging children with creative games, outdoor play, and educational activities. I'm also happy to help with light housekeeping. I follow parents' preferred communication methods to keep you informed about your child's day. I am fluent in English, Portuguese, Cape Verdean Creole and a little bit of Spanish. My patient, friendly, and imaginative personality allows me to connect with children on their level. I'm eager to bring my enthusiasm for childcare to your family and help your child thrive.
