Hi, My name is Maria. I offer my child care services. I consider myself a patient and responsible person. I have experience in the care of 2-month-old infants up to 5-year-olds. I have worked for multiple families and daycares. I love doing my job as I love children. If you are looking for a babysitter please contact me for more information. Thank you -Maria 

You can count on me being reliable, honest, and motivated.

I love working with kids because it provides me with the opportunity to engage in a variety of activities with them throughout the day and the responsibility of being in charge forces me to be ready for anything thrown my way.

I have been working with kids since 2010

One thing you should know about me is that I have a daughter and son.

I have own transportation

Maria took care of my grandson for one year while my daughter completed her residency.  We were completely satisfied with the loving care she provided.  Not only is Maria kind, gentle, and loving, she is also well versed in child development.   She consistently kept the baby's bottles and toys clean and in good order.  

When Maria would walk in to start her day, I had absolutely no concerns about leaving the house.  I knew the baby was in expert hands.   We can not recommend her highly enough.  She gave us peace of mind.  We are in her debt.

We hired Maria when our younger one was 6 weeks old. She is such a caring, affectionate and reliable person. We were able to make a daily schedule for the baby with her help. Her cleanliness is to be mentioned specifically.


She is very dedicated to her work, patience, caring and loving 

My wife and I work full-time and we hired Maria to care for our 3-month-old baby until he was almost 7months.  Since the day of the interview, she was hands-on with him. She was always attentive to his needs and engaging with him.  She would reading, sing, and play with him.  On days when it was nice, they’d go on walks or to our backyard for a bit. We knew our son would be in good hands and that she would provide the greatest degree of dedication to his care while we were away for the day.  You can tell that she loves working with kids.  Sometimes when my 5-year-old daughter would come home after school, Maria would stay a little longer just to play with her-- even though this wasn't her job.  She is truly committed to building relationships with the families she works with.  We continue to occasionally hire her when we need help with our son.   

Maria has worked with our family for the past two years - both as part-time and full-time during the Summer months. We love having her and she has been great with the children. Maria has two children of her own and is definitely a natural at taking care of little ones. When Maria started with us, my son was 12 months old. He is now 3 years old and will be attending preschool in the Fall. 

Maria is a very active individual who can easily keep up with young children. We have a playground next to our house within walking distance where she takes the children to play and exercise every morning. When they return, the kids are given lunch and take nap (younger age child). While the children sleep, she helps clean around the house and will do laundry. If the children are not sleeping, she will engage in reading, coloring, games and other learning activities in the playroom. I've been very impressed with Maria's creative side, as my daughter always seems to be building/making some sort of cra

We hired Maria in November 2015 shortly after she moved to Fort Worth. We are heartbroken that she will not be able to stay with us through our move to another part of the city. Because she does not drive, she is currently coming by bus on a number of days and our new house is not really accessible. She has been spectacular with our son, always turning everything into a learning opportunity for him. On Mother's Day I came home to a hand made card from "P." with his hand prints and flowers. She has not only cared for our son as her own, but completes duties around the house that help to keep us running smoothly. She is kind and thoughtful, and any family would be beyond lucky to have her. I would happily provide a glowing recommendation for her.

Maria was fantastic with my 4 month old son. She is a sweet, kindhearted and thoughtful caregiver. She is very attentive to the needs of my baby and is 100% engaged while working. She is very familiar with caring for infants, their needs and safety precautions. She is helpful and does extra tidying and cleaning up while baby is napping. We really enjoyed having her in our home.

Maria watched our daughter for 6 months in 2018 when my daughter was 12-18 months old, at which point our daughter moved to a Montessori classroom. Maria is an angel and we will hire her again in a heartbeat when we have another child one day! She is attentive and beyond qualified. Every interaction with our daughter was a teaching lesson, and she spent her days on my daughter's level pointing out colors and playing with her. She was always talking with my daughter, never just watching her - but constantly engaging with her. She varied activities for our daughter daily between playing indoors, going on walks to the park, and splashing in the sprinkler. She never watched TV or played on her phone. She cooked nutritious meals, and always tidied up afterward. She always used sunscreen if they went outside. The first thing she does when she comes into your house is wash her hands. She does a wonderful job about washing hands and staying germ-free, which can be hard with toddlers!

Maria is very loving and caring towards our two children age 1 and 6.    She was especially helpful with our youngest when he was a fussy baby.   We really appreciate her kindness, patience and ability to find ways to play with both children, not always easy, given the age difference.  We loved having her in the house!

Maria is our go-to caregiver.  We actually met Maria in the park when she was caring for another child.  We instantly connected, and we hired her to take care of our 2 year old son for random date nights.  She's ALWAYS the first person we call!  She's always punctual.  She's caring and warm towards our son, and she's so patient with him.  She taught him numbers and colors in Spanish. 
 She helps with light housecleaning if she has down time.  She really is the best out there!

Maria is wonderful. We feel so lucky to have been able to work with her. She is always patient and kind with our sweet son. We would hire her back anytime!
