Hello! I'm Maria I'm 60, married to Quintin, have 2 adult step-children and 5 grandchildren, to my delight! I moved to the Delaware Beach area in 1996 and babysat with Nanny Sitting Service, cleaned at my Aunt's B&B and worked as a Certified Nursing Aid at our Beebe Hospital and locally, providing "in home care". I enjoy serving and assisting folks, with excellence, compassion, empathy and love. It's nice to watch peoples' children, so they can have a date night or get what they need done. Little ones are such fun and I love being part of their big little world and their growth!! Sometime, I bring goodies, because they're excited to see new toys and I like for them to show me their neat stuff and play along with them! I have worked with children at church and have mentored in elementary school and I have certification as a Read more nursing aid and American Heart Assoc. Basic life Support (CPR&AED) certification.

Maria watched my 3 kids on a numerous of occasions. I was initially so worried about bringing someone in but Maria was amazing. My kids still ask about her. They all loved her so much. She went above and beyond by bringing toys and activities that my children would enjoy. I highly recommend Maria to other families.
