Meet Maria
- Has a car
I have over 5 years of experience caring for children, and I am also a proud mother of a 13-year-old girl. I am a psychologist in my home country and speak both English and Spanish fluently. Throughout my career, I have always worked with children and young people, supporting them with love, guidance, and patience. I enjoy helping children grow into educated, independent, intelligent, and—most importantly—happy individuals. I also love animals and feel comfortable in homes with pets. In addition, I can assist with homework or help children develop special skills, as I place great importance on emotional intelligence in their development. I am CPR certified, responsible, and passionate about creating a safe, nurturing, and fun environment for children. I am open to any questions and happy to provide more information.

Maria has been babysitting for our family for occasional work/emergency care and has been super dependable with our two boys (a 6-month-old and a 2.5-year-old). She’s always willing to help when asked — whether it’s folding laundry or doing dishes — which has been a big help for me as a mom of two little ones!! She’s very flexible, receptive, and easy to work with. I’ve never had an issue with her not remembering when she works/punctuality like I’ve had in the past with others. I can really rely on her! I highly recommend her to family and friends!!
