About Maria

Pediatric Care Specialist & BSOT Graduate Hello! I bring a unique blend of professional expertise and rich family experience to childcare. I am an international Bachelor of Science in Occupational Therapy (BSOT) graduate with over 20 years of caregiving experience. My heart has always been dedicated to nurturing children. I have raised 3 kids of my own and cared for 10 grandchildren. Over the last 12 years here in Georgia, I have provided trusted care for both typical and neurodivergent children (Autism, ADHD, and sensory challenges). With my background in occupational therapy, I intuitively understand how to meet a child at their unique neurological level using gentle grounding techniques and structured play. I treat every child with deep dignity and love. Please don't hesitate to reach out-I'd love to chat about how I can best support your family!
