About Maria
Experience: 8 yrs
I am a national champion soccer player and I coach JV girls soccer. My most meaningful time as a mentor took place as a camp counselor. I can cook, clean, and organize fun activities for kids. Things I like to do with kids: bake, paint, build things, explore the outdoors, play interactive games and play make-believe. I can also help with focusing on homework, reading and other academic skills. I am looking to provide meaningful care for a family that knows the value of a quality care giver. Interested in online schooling help? I have been a tutor for many years ranging from 8-year-olds to undergrads. I offer virtual learning meetings to work through Home work and brush up on math and reading skills. Hour long stents are best for kids 5-12. All the Best, Maria
Most recent review
Maria has been an absolute gift to our family. We have five children ranging in age from 16 years old to 1 year old, and she has connected with each of them so beautifully and intentionally. From the moment we met her, she made us feel deeply safe, cared for, and supported. What stood out immediately was how present and engaged she is with children. She doesn’t rely on screens or distractions, instead, she comes prepared with board games, stickers, gemstones, creative activities, and genuine curiosity about who the children are as individuals. She is emotionally intelligent, attentive, nurturing, and incredibly engaging. She asks thoughtful questions, connects deeply with the kids, and creates an environment where they feel seen, heard, and valued. Our children genuinely look forward to spending time with her. Maria brings such a grounded, calm, and loving energy into our home, and the level of trust we feel with her is priceless. I truly cannot recommend her enough, we are beyond grateful to have found her and would recommend her a million times over.
