About Maria

Experience: 10 yrs

9/12/2024 Hello. I will be unavailable to support families until further notice. I would prefer not deleting my account entirely as I hope to be available sometime Im mid to late 2025. Thank you. -Maria P. ***Original Profile Message: While I haven't had any "Formal" child-care experience since I was in college, I am raising a son and work with children on a daily basis as a secondary school English teacher. I love children, love to read, arts and crafts, to cook, be outdoors and am not a huge fan of gaming/tv. I would love to help out with homework, meal prep, snacks, pick-ups and drop-offs to extra curricular activities and just enjoy being silly with your family. Reliable insured, inspected vehicle, clean driver's license, federal background check per teaching license requirements, open-minded, patient and kind.

Maria was so helpful. She did homework with my daughter and even light housekeeping work without me asking. She is mature and very reliable. My daughter loves her. The kids really enjoyed having her presence in the house and we are so lucky we found her.
