About Maria

Hello, I'm Maria! I've been a dedicated nanny for over 20 years, recently relocated to Yakima Valley after working with many wonderful families in the Bay Area. I've cared for children from ages 1 to 18, including those with disabilities and special needs. I'm reliable, patient, and nurturing-with experience in homework help, school prep, medication reminders, and preparing healthy snacks. I love encouraging kids through screen-free play, creative learning, and outdoor activities like trips to the park or library. As a proud mom of two grown sons (ages 26 and 18), I bring a mother's care and understanding to every family I work with. I have excellent references and would be happy to speak with you to see if we're a good fit. I look forward to connecting!
