As someone with a genuine love for nurturing young minds, I've dedicated the past 11 years of my career to providing exceptional childcare to families. With a background in early child development coursework, I'm more than equipped to support your child's growth. My patient, creative, and approachable nature creates a nurturing environment where your child can thrive. I pride myself on maintaining open communication with parents, ensuring you're always well-informed about your child's day. Whether through verbal updates at pickup or regular texts or phone calls, I adapt to your preferred communication style. When it comes to enforcing household rules, I believe in a firm yet gentle approach, fostering a sense of discipline and respect. From outdoor sports to educational games, I enjoy a wide range of activities that engage children's minds and bodies. Licensed and trained in CPR and First Aid, I'm fully prepared to handle any situation that may arise.

Maurifa helped as a night nurse and babysitter for our 4 year old and infant son. She is kind, caring and loves children. Even when our infant would get very fussy, she never lost her patience, and would keep soothing and rocking him with a smile on her face until he calmed down (and sometimes it would take up to 40 minutes). With our older son, she would work with him on his letters and numbers, staying firm but kind even through his frustrations. She treated my children like her own, and her gentle spirit helped bolster us during a difficult time.
