About Maria
Experience: 20 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
I've always been passionate about helping children grow and learn, which led me to become a childcare provider with over 20 years of experience. My friendly and approachable personality helps me connect with children and build a positive rapport with them. I believe in open communication with parents and prefer to follow their preferred method of communication to discuss their child's day or any issues that arise. I'm comfortable enforcing household rules as guided by the parents and enjoy playing a variety of games with children, including outdoor sports, board games, and puzzles. I have experience caring for children of various ages, from infants to preteens, and am comfortable caring for one child at a time. I hold a college degree and have completed both First Aid and CPR training. I'm also experienced in caring for children with special needs. In my free time, I enjoy traveling and am happy to help with that if needed. I don't smoke and am comfortable with pets.

Lorena is the best nanny you could ask for! We’ve had her part time for about half a year, taking care of our then 9 month old. She’s very experienced and it clearly shows in her work. We hadn’t had a nanny before and she adjusted to our child and family very quickly to make herself invaluable. She also knows Walnut Creek well and is resourceful in knowing where to take kids for free events and comfortable places on rainy/hot days. On top of that, she is so incredibly loving to our child. It’s endearing to see how much she cares for him. He has never had a bump or a scrape while she’s with him. She is firm but kind and trust her completely with him. I would recommend her to anyone. We free so grateful that she chose to work with our family and has shown us what a good nanny means. The next family would be lucky to have her!
