About Maria

Experience: 6 yrs

Hi guys! I've been passionate about childcare since I was 18 years old. From the age of 18 to now, I've cared for children ages 6 months old to 12 years old. I hold an undergraduate degree from UCSB, and a Master's in Marriage and Family Therapy. Over the past 2 years, I have been particularly drawn to working with children and adolescents in a therapeutic setting. However, in the last several months, I've worked at an eating disorder treatment center for adults. While I have valued this experience, I've realized that what truly fulfills me is working with kids and teens. I'm now seeking to return to my roots by combining my clinical knowledge with my passion for childcare. Additional info about me: I am fluent in Spanish, I am a certified yoga instructor, I also love dancing, improv, painting, watching movies, and surfing! Feel free to call/email with any specific questions
