About Maria

Experience: 10 yrs

I have had experience with infants and toddlers since I was a teenager, I really enjoy taking care of those little ones, they are my passion. I am a mother of two, one 11yo girl and a 3yo boy. So, I have experience with multiple kids of my own. In my free time I read parenting books to help me have a better connection not only with children but with myself. I am a very patient, responsible and kind person. My first language is Spanish, and I speak fluent English. I received my High School diploma in Mexico and also attended to university there for one year, but I didn't graduate. I describe my personality as outgoing, attentive and nurturing. I use age-appropriate activities to keep children engaged by reading, playing, taking them out to parks or library. During naps I could help with laundry, clean and organize the baby's playing area, doing dishes, etc.

Maria is one of our favorite nannies. She was wonderful with our two boys and our whole family. Maria was with us for over three years. She brought positive energy and a fun attitude when she came to work every day. The boys loved doing art, playing outside, and cooking with her. She also made great food the kids liked and did some light housekeeping. We moved out of the area otherwise we would still have Maria helping our family. We miss her!
