About Maria

Experience: 3 yrs

As a nurturing and experienced childcare provider with three years of experience, I am passionate about fostering children's growth and development. My previous babysitting roles have been incredibly rewarding and have inspired me to make a positive impact on the lives of children. Patient, calm, creative, and friendly, I strive to create a safe and nurturing environment for children to learn, play, and grow. I believe in open communication with parents and provide regular updates on their child's day and any issues that may arise. I am also very comfortable enforcing household rules to ensure a structured and harmonious environment. I enjoy playing a variety of games with children, including outdoor sports, board games, and educational games that promote learning. I am comfortable caring for one child at a time and am willing to help with cooking, meal preparation, carpooling, light housekeeping, travel, and swimming supervision.

I am delighted to recommend Maria, who cared for our oldest daughter from 6 months to nearly 4 years old. Maria's kind nature and soft demeanor created a nurturing environment where our daughter felt safe and loved. Her exceptional organizational skills ensured our daughter's schedule was always well-coordinated, balancing structure with fun. Maria's patience and adaptability are truly commendable. She handled every situation with calm and composure, whether dealing with a fussy toddler or navigating travel challenges. Her flexibility in traveling with us and staying overnight provided invaluable support. Maria is also an amazing mother, enriching her caregiving with deep understanding and empathy. She continues to nanny for our younger daughter, on occasion, bringing continuity and security to our family. Maria is not just a nanny but a loved member of our family. Any family would be incredibly fortunate to have her.
