About Maria Joao

Hi! My name is Maria and I'd love to be your babysitter! I am from Brazil but lived in Seattle for 10 years before moving to San Francisco 5 years ago. I speak English, Portuguese, some Spanish, and a little little bit of French. I've always taken care of my two little sisters, who are 13 and 14 years younger than me, but my real experience as a Nanny happened in Seattle while I was in college. I cared for the same little girl from when she was 3 months until she turned 2 years old. About a year and half ago I started babysitting in San Francisco, mostly working with families in my neighborhood near Dolores Park. I am a very reliable, patient, and creative person who loves being with children and is always looking to provide a playful and safe environment. For peace of mind, I am registered at California's Background Check for In-Home Child Care. Parents can access my registration upon request. I would love to meet you and your family!
