Maria’s Bio
In my current role, I have honed my skills in efficiency, responsibility, patience, and attentiveness. I am adept at managing time effectively, ensuring tasks are completed thoroughly and on schedule. My responsible nature allows me to prioritize the well-being of patients, adhering to all care instructions and safety protocols.
Most importantly, I possess a genuine love for working with elderly individuals. I find it incredibly rewarding to build relationships with them, understanding their needs and offering companionship. My patience allows me to listen attentively and provide emotional support, while my caring nature ensures I go the extra mile to make them feel comfortable and respected.

I am confident that I can develop a positive and trusting relationship with your client, providing not only practical assistance but also a sense of companionship and emotional support. I am eager to discuss my qualifications furthe

Reviews
Maria is an absolute SWEETHEART!! She has watched my kids (8 yo boy and 6 yo girl) many times over the past couple years. She always shows up on time and is very responsive to my texts. She engages both of my kids with games and play. My son once asked her to make him a robot and she dressed him up in aluminum foil (after asking my permission)! He still talks about it. :) My daughter is autistic and Maria has always handled her so well. My daughter struggles with communication and can get easily frustrated, but Maria worked to form a bond with her and they are so close. She always texts me if she's not sure about something my daughter needs/wants/requests. We have a dog and cat that Maria handles so well! She always tidies up the house after the kids are asleep. Don't hesitate to hire her! She's amazing!!
She came across responsible in the beginning; but then proved my point that hiring young people sometimes can be to a disadvantage because they are sometimes unreliable and dishonest.
