About Maria Patricia

I'm a caring and responsible mom of two, originally from Spain and now in Chatham. I love helping children feel safe and confident while they learn and explore. I worked as a nanny in the UK, babysat in Spain, and as a mom I have daily experience with babies and toddlers. I hold a Nursing Degree from Spain and a Master's in Education, which help me support child development with empathy and routines. I enjoy cooking homemade meals, reading with kids, crafts, and spending time outdoors - parks, biking, nature and swimming. I've used basic baby sign language and value independence, curiosity and emotional awareness. Families describe me as warm, patient and trustworthy. I'm bilingual (English, Spanish, Catalan + basic French) and comfortable with pets. I'm looking for occasional babysitting that fits well with family life.
