About Maria

Maria has been an exceptional caregiver to my 1yo since Sept 2025. She is incredibly attentive — not only to our child’s needs, but also to the environment, routines, and emotional cues that help him feel safe, supported, and understood. Maria’s greatest strengths is her creativity. She consistently comes up with thoughtful, engaging activities (ex: hands‑on crafts and learning games) that spark curiosity and fun. She emphasizes learning through play, which has made a huge difference in my son's development. Days with her are full of exploration, communication, and growth- not just passive toy time. Maria is also flexible and reliable. When adjustments were needed, she always did her best to accommodate, and she provided ample notice for any time off. Her professionalism and communication have made working with her effortless and stress‑free. Maria has been an asset to my son's developmental progress. We’ve seen growth in his confidence, skills, and independence over the months, thanks in part to Maria's patience, consistency, and intentional approach. We will be genuinely sad to lose her as my son transitions to daycare. Any family would be incredibly lucky to have Maria — she is deeply invested in the children she works with.
