About Maria

Experience: 20 yrs

Nurturing children and watching them blossom has always been a passion of mine. My two decades of experience caring for children aged newborn to teens have equipped me with the skills to provide engaging and supportive care. I'm patient, creative, and friendly, and I find joy in playing outdoor games, board games, and educational activities that encourage learning. I'm very comfortable enforcing household rules. I communicate with parents using their preferred method, offering detailed updates at pickup. I am happy to assist with carpooling, light housekeeping, travel, and swimming supervision. I hold certifications in First Aid Training and CPR Training, and I have completed Early Child Development Coursework. I am comfortable caring for one child at a time. Speaking both English and Spanish, I can connect with a wider range of families. Ultimately, I seek to be more than just a caregiver, and I hope to become a trusted partner in your child's growth and well-being.

Maria has worked for my family for over 5 years. She is dependable, trust worthy and so wonderful with our son F. When she started, F. was an infant. She treated him as she would her own child and I never had to worry about the care he was receiving. Now, F. is 5 1/2 and she truly is part of the family. He loves his “Otti” so much and has never complained about being in her care. She always alerts me to concerns or observations she has with him. She is proactive in letting me know when I need to replace something, in seeing that something around the house needs to get done or asking me if I need help with something. She has watched my son as well as my house and dogs multiple times for over night trips. She drives my car daily and I have never had any issues or concerns. Maria shows up on time and I think she only has had to miss 2-3 days in the last 5 plus years due to being sick. Maria has also Nannied for at least 2 other families that I am close with. Both families rave about working with Maria and only stopped working with her due to the children being old enough to go to school or moving out of Orange County. I cannot recommend Maria enough and know that if you choose to work with her, you will be very happy with her services.
