Hi! My name is Maria. I am currently in my first year in college, where I am beginning my journey toward becoming a child psychologist. My long-term goal is to help children overcome mental health challenges. I am also a member of my college dance team. I have two years of experience caring for a 5-year-old boy. I have also done occasional babysitting for other families on an as need basis. I developed strong skills in creating a safe and fun environment. I pride myself on being a responsible, attentive, and patient babysitter, and always strive to make children feel comfortable and supported. Additionally, I completed a student teaching experience in a first-grade classroom at School One Elementary School. This opportunity allowed me support young students in their learning. I am also trilingual, fluent in English, Spanish, and Portuguese, and I enjoy connecting with diverse families. I would love to support your family and provide a safe, engaging, and caring environment.
Maria is a responsible, attentive, and incredibly caring young woman. She has been working with our family for the past four years, and from the very beginning, my children absolutely adored her. She always arrives full of energy, ready to engage, play, and truly connect with the kids. Maria is extremely responsible, and her focus on safety is always clear and reassuring. She has cared for my three children, including twins and handles everything from playtime to meals to bedtime with ease and confidence. We feel so lucky to have had Maria in our lives, and any family would be fortunate to have her as part of theirs.
