Experience: 10 yrs
I am a dedicated childcare provider with over 25 years of experience caring for children from newborns to teenagers, including those with special needs. I have supported children with developmental delays and autism while building strong, trusting relationships with families. I cared for a blind child with Level 3 Autism from age 5 to 15, providing daily support with mobility, personal care, routines, and emotional development. I also worked with another child from age 10 to 18, assisting with transportation, supervision, and light household management. I have extensive experience with infants and young children, including caring for two siblings from newborn and 5 months through early childhood. Most recently, I cared for a young boy with Level 1 Autism from 3 to 20 months, using Montessori-inspired, screen-free care, supporting motor development, and speaking Portuguese daily. I am patient, reliable, and deeply committed to each child's growth and well-being.
Marilia started working for us during early 2021 when our son was 5 months old. She stayed on with us when we had our daughter in 2022, until both kids went to preschool. She still babysits on occasion and has even taken our dog overnight. We trust her implicitly.
