About Maria Lua
Experience: 4 yrs
I have 4 years of experience caring for children of all ages, along with classroom experience as an English teacher for 25+ students, including those with special needs. My background as an au pair helped me build strong communication, patience, and organizational skills. I enjoy keeping kids engaged with outdoor games, puzzles, and creative activities while maintaining structure and following household rules. I am CPR and First Aid certified, fluent in English, Portuguese, and Spanish, and comfortable with pets. Families can count on me to be reliable, energetic, and dedicated to creating a safe and positive environment.
Most recent review
Lua is an outstanding caretaker! She has not only connected deeply with our family and become a part of it, but she consistently goes above and beyond in everything she does. She truly cares, and her bright, energetic personality shines through in the way she engages with others.
