About Maria
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
Hello my name is Maria, I have been a nannie-babysitter for family, friends, etc for more than 30 years. I love taking care of infants, toddlers and children of all ages. Interacting with them by reading to them, doing arts and crafts, cooking for them, taking them to the park, library, museums, or even teaching them to speak Spanish. I am also fluent in Portuguese. I believe kids are the most important part of our lives and nurturing them is so very important. Personally taking good care of them is most rewarding. I am fully vaccinated.

Our family has been beyond grateful to have Maria with us for the past two years. Maria is an extremely gifted nanny who goes above and beyond for our two young children. Maria is kind, patient, loving, and joyful. She has been with us since our daughter was one and since that time she has taught our daughter innumerable skills, including teaching her how to speak Spanish, paint, draw, cook, dress herself, and much more. Maria has also been watching our son who was born in September, and she is skillful with newborns. Maria provides our son with endless love, care, and attention. Further, Maria goes above and beyond every day. She leaves our house immaculate, helps us with our laundry, and is always very flexible if we need additional hours of care. We truly could not be more grateful for Maria. She has become a member of our family. Both of our children will begin attending a preschool in the fall however if they weren't, we would wish to keep working with Maria forever.
