Experienced, reliable babysitter and nanny available to help your family part-time Hello, dear families! My name is Maria, and I am a dedicated nanny with a decade and a half of professional experience in child care, alongside the personal experience of raising a wonderful daughter of my own. My journey with children has not only been a job but a passion that has grown with every year I’ve spent nurturing young minds. I am currently seeking a part-time position and am available to bring my caring nature and expertise to your home on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays from 9:30 am to 3:00 pm. My schedule is crafted to align with the academic calendar, as I’ve been with a wonderful family for a decade and continue to work with them. However, now that the children are in school, I have additional hours and an abundance of care to extend to another Read more fantastic family. My approach is always thoughtful and centered around the unique needs of each child I look after. I pride myself on being reliable—a trait that has been paramount in maintaining a decade-long relationship with a single family—and hardworking, always willing to go that extra mile to ensure a stable, positive environment for the children in my care. My experience spans caring for children of all ages, from the delightful curiosity of toddlers to the fascinating thoughts of teenagers. I deeply understand the varying needs at different developmental stages, and I’m adept at engaging children in a mix of educational and recreational activities. I can cook, drive, do laundry, run errands – anything you need, no task too big or small. I am looking forward to the opportunity to care for your children, providing them not just with supervision, but with a nurturing, fun environment where they can thrive, learn, and feel at ease. Please feel free to contact me for any more information or to discuss how I can be a part of your family’s journey.

Maria is one of the most wonderful people I have ever met. She has been with my family for about a year and a half now. She gets my kids off the bus at around 3 and watches them until I get home (4-5 days/week), generally around 7. She is more than willing to help you out, with whatever you need. When asked to do something in particular, her pat answer is "no problem". She is a a great driver and VERY responsible. She has not once left me shorthanded and has helped me out on NUMEROUS occasions when I was in a jam. For example, she even slept over when night when my husband and I went away! Her help around the house, wonderful can do attitude, responsibility, and understanding of children is a home run. My kids are getting older so I do not need help with the kids as much as I did. Maria is a treasure and I have come to think of her as a good friend. I am going to miss all of her help! If you are unsure, give her a chance - you will not be sorry.
