About Maria

Experience: 3 yrs

Hello families! Glad to have you in my profile! I'd like to say I'm an experienced and dependable childcare provider with over 6 years of experience (3 in the US) and graduate coursework in early childhood education. I'm currently seeking a new position and bring with me references from families I've supported. I'm passionate about creating a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment where children can thrive. I love incorporating educational play, creative activities, and routines that support learning and fun. I believe in clear communication and following each family's values/ expectations. I'm originally from Colombia and came to the U. S. through a cultural exchange program, fell in love with the city and like to continue my studies here while building my experience in childcare. I'm flexible with scheduling and happy to accommodate your family's needs. I'm excited for the opportunity to support your household and help your child grow with confidence and care!

We first got to know Maria because she was a nanny for a family in our building, and our 2-year old got to join in on playdates she organized with our current nanny. It was such a gift and our son always had the best time! We also used her for occasional date nights, and she made us feel completely comfortable leaving. She’s thoughtful, dependable, and so sweet with kids. We feel really lucky to have had her in our circle and would highly recommend her!
