I bring joyful, meaningful and purposeful standards of care to your loved one. I am a former elementary school teacher and a licensed certified nursing assistant in the state of Florida. My specialty is music therapy ( piano). I create and individual musical sessions which will engage, enrich and enhance the clients mental & emotional well being. I believe it is important to eat healthy. I prepare healthy meals based on clients needs. I have worked independently with a variety of aging and elderly clients. Most recently I was honored as "Caregiver Of the Year". I look forward to learning about you, your loved ones needs, and discussing how I can be of assistance to you and your family. Additionally I have a CDP & MDCP (Certified Dementia Practitionar & Montessori Dementia Care Professional) through the NCCDP- National Council of Certified Dementia Practitioners. I have a 4hr. Minimum. LIFE ENRICHMENT & ENGAGEMENT IS MY SPECIALITY.

Maria was a been blessing to our family. She has taken exceptional care for my mom with dementia. My mom considers Maria as her best and dear friend. Maria dedicated numerous hours outside of her work week sending us weekly emails updating us on my mom's progress. She tirelessly worked at discovering new and better ways on how to make my mom's life better. I give Maria the highest recommendation because of her devoted compassion to my mom during these very difficult times.
