I've had a lot of experience caring for children as I helped raise my younger siblings and babysat for cousins. I also have a son and a daughter that I have raised, there grown one is in college and the other is graduating high school and moving on to college. I love being outdoors and being able to go to parks, zoo, and nature walks I believe that by doing that the kids learn to interact and be aware of their surroundings. I have almost 20 years in childcare experience. I prefer to start with a family when they're child is a couple of months old till they start preschool or kindergarten, I do potty training and basic skill training so that they are ready to start there preschool or kindergarten journey well prepared.

Maria cared for our son from ages 1-4, including through the depths of the pandemic. She was highly dependable throughout this period, and she showed great care for our son. Her greatest strength was balancing giving him enough freedom to learn on his own, while still keeping a close eye on things. She made him an independent eater (saved us a lot of time!) and was able to potty train him successfully.
