About Maria

Experience: 3 yrs

Nurturing children comes naturally to me, and I have three years of experience providing attentive care. My graduate degree has equipped me with valuable insights into child development. I am patient, calm, friendly, and approachable, creating a positive environment for children to thrive. I am very comfortable enforcing household rules. I enjoy playing outdoor sports, educational games, and even some technology-based games. I'm happy to help with cooking, meal preparation, and light housekeeping. I maintain open communication with parents, using their preferred method. I am also First Aid Trained. Babysitting sparked my passion for positively impacting young lives and supporting families. I'm excited to bring my enthusiasm and skills to your family.

We have been beyond blessed to have Maria as part of our family for the past three years. She began caring for our daughter when she was an infant, and from the very beginning, she brought so much love, patience, and intention into our home. Over the years, she has become so much more than a nanny- she is truly family to us. Maria has an incredible way with children. She is nurturing, calm, dependable, and deeply attentive to each stage of development. She has helped guide our daughter through important milestones with encouragement and care, always prioritizing safety, learning, and emotional well-being. We trust her completely, and that peace of mind is priceless. Beyond her natural warmth, she is responsible, communicative, and consistently goes above and beyond. She treats our children as if they were her own and has played such a meaningful role in shaping our daughter into the confident, happy little person she is today. Any family would be incredibly lucky to have Maria. She is one of those rare caregivers who leaves a lasting imprint on a child’s heart and on their parents’ hearts too. We will forever be grateful for the love, dedication, and stability she has given our family.
