About Maria

Nurturing young minds and supporting families is my passion. My journey into childcare began with positive babysitting experiences and has blossomed into a fulfilling career. For the past three years, I have cared for children aged newborn to 11 years old, with a focus on toddlers and preschoolers. I'm comfortable caring for up to three children at a time. My approach is patient, calm, creative, and friendly. I enjoy playing outdoor games, board games, puzzles, and educational activities. I follow parents' lead when enforcing household rules and always communicate using their preferred method. I have some high school education. I am also certified in CPR and First Aid. I speak English and Portuguese fluently. I have a car and I am comfortable with pets. I am eager to bring my energy and experience to your family, creating a fun and safe environment where your children can thrive.
