Thank you for viewing my page, my name is Maria. I am 26 and have been caring for children for many years. I truly enjoy working with children of all ages beginning with newborns. I have experience working with children that have different learning disabilities, have asthma or severe allergies. I have volunteered in schools, and even did some fill in sports coaching. I have done it all from part time sitting to full time nanny. I received my associates degree from CCRI and have taken many courses in child development, child education, and child safety. I love to help engage children in learning and expressing their creativity. I enjoy reading to and teaching them new things. I believe it is important to stay healthy and active, I try to encourage healthy habits for children I care for. I am very organized and good at keeping children on a productive Read more yet fun schedule. I also have a clean driving record with zero tickets, and am a safe and cautious driver.

Maria babysat our daughter gabby 2 days a week for 6 months or so in the fall. We could not have been happier with how she took care of our little girl while we were at work. She would bring her on walks, take her to the library, or even just stimulating her mind with reading a book. On top of that, even though we told her not to, we would come home to a clean house as Maria cant stand to leave a mess! Unfortunately, Maria received a full time job, so she was unavailable during the hours we needed, but would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter for their little one! Thank you Maria!
