Maria is fantastic! Our little one took to her instantly as did our dog! She is caring and fun. I never had to worry about her being on time or if my daughter would be occupied. She always went the extra mile. :)

She was sweet, understanding and very patient. My 13 and 8 year old both loved her. I highly recommend her.

Maria is the best! She has every common sense and mom instinct you would want for someone watching you babies. My 1 yr old is always happy to see her and she takes great care of him. She’s very open and great with clear communication. I highly recommend Maria and am so glad to have found her.

We’ve used Maria multiple times since late 2019. She’s great with all three of our younger kids. They love having her over. She’s a great communicator in regards to how the kids are doing while they’re in her care. She’s honest and upfront about the childcare rates. If you’re looking for someone to watch your little ones and you don’t want to have to worry about how they’re being cared for, search no further!
