My name is Maria, and I’m currently available for nannying, babysitting, or caregiver support on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays in the Lake Calhoun / Minneapolis area and nearby cities. I have almost 10 years of childcare experience and have cared for children from newborns to young kids.

Maria has a truly special gift for caring for children. Her patience, kindness, and gentle nature make her someone that our children naturally trust and enjoy being around. She treated our children with love, respect, and genuine care, creating a safe and happy environment where they can learn, play, and grow. We can feel confident knowing our children are in caring and capable hands. She is dependable, compassionate, and always goes the extra mile to make both our children feel supported. Anyone would be incredibly fortunate to have her care for their children. Above all, she is a loving and devoted mother, and the same warmth, dedication, and compassion she gives to her own family shine through in the care she provides to others.
