Hello families, my name is Maria! I have 3 years of professional experience in early childhood education, along with many more years of caring for little ones (infants - age 5) I'm CPR certified, bilingual (English and Spanish), and know a bit of sign language. I am passionate about creating a safe, loving, and engaging environment where children can learn and grow. I love engaging kids through play, reading, and creative activities. I can also provide light household help: laundry, dishes, tidying up, and keeping play areas clean. I am able to prepare healthy meals and snacks for children as well. I am currently seeking a nanny position where I can bring my dedication and love for childcare into a family’s home. Please feel free to message me if you’d like to chat more about your family’s needs
