About Maria

Hello! My name is Maria. I have been in childcare for 6 years, working with ages 6 weeks to 5 years. I am a certified postpartum doula as well. I have a 2-year-old son that always keeps me on the move and is a big socializer. We recently moved to the Drums, PA area and we are hoping to make new friends and do what we love most, playing with friends and socializing as much as possible. Before we moved to PA, we lived in NC, where I was a Lead Teacher at The Goddard School in the one to 2-year-old classroom. While I loved getting to spend time with 10 little ones all together, I learned that I really find it to be more beneficial for children to have a more personal, 1 on 1 type of relationship with their caregivers rather than having a caregiver's attention split between 9 other children. I also believe that a more personal relationship with caregivers provides a safer and more supportive environment for children, which leads to better learning experiences.
