I'm passionate about caring for children, having gained experience through previous babysitting roles. My nurturing nature and desire to make a positive impact on their lives are what drove me to become a childcare provider. Patience, creativity, and a friendly demeanor are what you can expect from me. I believe in open communication with parents, providing regular updates and following their preferred method of contact. Regarding household rules, I take my cues from the parents to ensure consistency for the children. When it comes to play, I love engaging children in outdoor activities, board games, and educational games that foster their development. With three years of experience, I'm comfortable caring for up to three children, ranging from infants to preteens. My college degree and fluency in English, Portuguese, and Spanish further enhance my ability to provide comprehensive care.
Mariana (Mari) has been with our family full-time since February 2025, when our son was just 4 months old. As our son approaches his first birthday and begins daycare this fall, we feel so grateful for the care and love Mari has given him during this first year. Mari is affectionate, dependable, and has been very helpful keeping our son on a routine. Her prior infant experience was extremely helpful to us as first time parents -- she's offered thoughtful guidance around sleep training, separation anxiety, introduction to solids, toys/items to buy, and developmental milestones like rolling and crawling. She is punctual and reliable, arriving at 8am each day, and is frequently open to working extra hours when needed. Beyond her professionalism, Mari is kind, generous, and easygoing. She takes direction well, communicates clearly, and brings a calm and warm presence to our home. We've loved having Mari care for our son and recommend her to other families looking for infant-care.
