About Maria

Experience: 12 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

I'd describe my personality as respectful, friendly, great person ! Hi my name is Maria, but you can call me Alejandra. I live in Astoria, Queens and I'm CPR certified. I graduated from high school and I studied nursing for a year and a half- my dream job is to one day be a pediatric nurse. I'm 32 years old, I'm bilingual in English/Spanish and I have experience with kids of all ages, from newborn to 11 years old. In the last few years I found a passion for helping new parents and postpartum moms, by supporting them through the first year. I love to teach little ones Spanish (if their parents are comfortable with that, of course!) and love to play games with children, bring them to the park, sing songs and read books to help expand their knowledge. I'm willing to stay home with your little one if they're sick and help them recover. I have the Covid Vaccine and I'm willing to do whatever makes your family feel more comfortable and at ease (including wearing a mask!).

Maria is a great experienced caregiver. My son is very shy around new sitters, but Maria found a way to get him smiling within 10 minutes. I didn’t worry leaving my 17 month old son with her. She kept up with his energy and entertained him the entire time. Have already rebooked Maria for future dates.
