Experience: 10 yrs
My name is Maria , and I have 15+ years of experience caring for children from newborns to 16 years old, including 3 years as a full-time live-in nanny with the same family. My childcare style combines positive discipline, clear boundaries, and structure while encouraging children's autonomy, creativity, and independence. I have experience with dietary restrictions, food introduction, potty training, and supporting developmental milestones. I enjoy planning activities based on each child's interests and the natural flow of the day, including park outings, bike rides, baking, and creative activities. I also encourage independent play and confidence. I prepare meals for children and can involve them in age-appropriate cooking. I'm open to additional light household tasks and cooking for the family with an agreed rate adjustment. I am pet friendly, open to nanny shares, and flexible regarding the number of children depending on their ages and routines.
I highly recommend her as a nanny! She is caring, patient, and responsible. She is always finding creative ways to keep the kids entertained, whether it’s through arts and crafts, outdoor activities, reading books, or fun educational games.
