About Maria

Experience: 10 yrs

I have been watching children for as long as I was old enough, at the age of 15. I have love & patience with children and I am blessed to say they tend to warm up to me very quickly as well. I have experience with single children as well as children with multiple siblings & twins ranging from ages 0-10. I have sleep training experience as well for any of you new mommy's who want some sleep at night! I am reliable and very flexible. I attended Chico state, graduated in May 2019. I also have experience in Childcare centers working at the Child development lab on campus & in Hamilton City early head start programs as well. I am looking forward to watching someone's little one(s) &help their child's development as well as have fun! Hope to hear from you soon!

Maria was SUCH a wonderful nighttime nanny for us. We trusted her from day one of taking our precious newborn home from the hospital as nervous first-time parents, which says a lot. It was a godsend to be able to get the sleep we needed but what I did not expect was to also learn so much from her! She is really an infant-care pro and doesn’t preach or teach unless you express an interest in learning. Also, her vibes are the best – down-to-earth, warm, friendly, nonjudgmental, easy to talk to and very sweet. It felt like talking to a friend, pretty much right away. She was on time, reliable and easy to communicate with quickly by text. I really can’t recommend her enough, and I’d be happy to talk to anyone by phone if they’d like to speak to a former client of hers. I definitely hope to hire her again when we have our next baby, fingers crossed!
