About Maria
Experience: 3 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
Hi! I'm Maria--originally from Lusaka, Zambia but have lived in New York City for over 10 years. I am a professional actor who has worked in three continents; I also teach college-level and high school theatre in local public high schools and at Brooklyn College. I am passionate about arts education and working with young people. I have worked as a care provider for 3 years--with children aged 4 to 15. Outside of work, I'm a burgeoning seamstress, an avid runner, and an Afrobeats enthusiast.

Maria has been an exceptional babysitter for two of my students, one in 2nd grade and one in 4th. I am the 4th grader’s homeroom teacher and theater teacher to both students, so I interact with Maria on a regular basis. Maria is always punctual, responsible, and creates a safe, caring environment for the children. She has always been professional and thoughtful in my interactions with her at pick up and is a great liaison between us teachers and the childrens’ parents when they are busy. The students often speak fondly of Maria, which speaks volumes about her positive impact on them. I highly recommend Maria as a reliable and nurturing babysitter.
