About Maria

Experience: 2 yrs

I got my start in childcare working in after school daycare with kids who range from ages 5-12, and got the opportunity to organize fun and safe activities, tutor students who needed extra assistance with their school work, and create a safe environment that was a home away from home. But my interest and love for this field was sparked by my wonderful mother who worked in early childhood education through out my childhood, introducing me to plenty of volunteer opportunities where I got to engage not only with children from ages 0-5, but also with the most incredible educators who taught me so much about what it means and what it takes to care for your loved ones.

I cannot say enough positive things about our experience with Maria. From the moment we met her, we knew we had found someone special. As a parent, finding a trustworthy and reliable caregiver for your children is paramount, and Maria exceeded our expectations in every way. Reliability is key when it comes to childcare, and Maria consistently arrived on time and ready to engage with our children. She quickly built a rapport with them, putting both us and our kids at ease. What truly sets Maria apart is her genuine care and affection for our children. She didn't just supervise them; she actively engaged with them, playing games, doing crafts, and even helping with homework. Knowing that our children were not only safe but also having fun and learning under her care gave us peace of mind every time we left them with her. Communication is another area where Maria excelled. She always kept us informed about how things were going, whether it was a quick text to let us know they were doing well or a detailed update about activities and milestones achieved during the day. This level of communication helped us feel connected and involved even when we were away. Moreover, Maria demonstrated remarkable patience and understanding, especially during challenging moments with our special needs son. She handled any issues that arose with grace and professionalism, showing her commitment to creating a positive and nurturing environment for our children. In conclusion, we wholeheartedly recommend Maria to any parent seeking a reliable, caring, and fun caregiver for their children. She quickly became an integral part of our family, and we are grateful for the love and support she showed to our children. Thank you, Maria, for being such a stellar babysitter! We love you! XOXO!
