We found Mariah via Care.com in May 2026 when we were looking for childcare support for our 16-month-old daughter while we awaited our au pair's arrival. We have worked with several nannies but were immediately impressed by her professionalism and attention to detail during the interview. Once hired, Mariah's support was unparalleled and exceeded our expectations. She was punctual, communicative, and genuinely cared for our daughter's wellbeing. Mariah is brilliant, competent and emotionally intelligent. She quickly understood our family's approach to routines and childcare, not just the logistics but the values and cultural context behind them, and implemented everything seamlessly. Her experience with early learning shone through in the thoughtful ways she engaged with our daughter, and we learned much from her approach. She was attentive to every small change in our daughter's development and gracefully introduced helpful suggestions. We trusted Mariah completely, which is everything when it comes to childcare. Beyond her direct care, Mariah helped us train our au pair, ensuring continuity in our daughter's care at the high standard she had set. Though we've transitioned to our au pair as planned, we feel incredibly lucky to have found Mariah and intend to keep her involved in our family's care going forward.
