About Maria

Experience: 5 yrs

Nurturing children's growth and development is a true passion of mine. My five years of experience caring for children aged newborn to 11 have equipped me with the skills to provide engaging and supportive care. I hold an Associate's degree, have First Aid Training, and have hands on experience with Early Childhood Education (ECE). I'm comfortable caring for up to three children, creating fun through outdoor games, board games, and even educational activities. I follow parents' lead on household rules and communicate updates using their preferred method. I'm also happy to help with light housekeeping and meal preparation. I also speak Spanish! My calm and patient nature makes me a reliable and friendly caregiver, and I look forward to helping children and their families.

A wonderful babysitter! Patient and kind with my two kids and myself. I’ve called on Maria since having my first child, he adores them! Maria is very clean, has amazing organizational skills, and never fails to show up. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a a regular or one time sitter.
