I began my babysitting journey at 15, caring for two wonderful children during their parents' date night. Now at 20, I'm pursuing pre-med at the University of Georgia, inspired by my passion for working with children, especially those with special needs. My experience has grown tremendously over the years. I've worked with children of all ages – from a precious 6-month-old baby girl to energetic 11-year-olds. Last summer, I regularly cared for 8 and 9-year-old sisters, building a special bond while coordinating their activities. I also gained valuable experience with younger children, caring for a 3-year-old and his 1-year-old sister, and served as a camp counselor for children ages 5-11. One of my most rewarding experiences was working with a 6-year-old boy with autism, taking him to parks and pools, and seeing his remarkable development. Similarly, I tutored a 6th grader with ADHD, helping her stay on track with schoolwork. Read more I'm CPR certified with a clean driving record and speak English, Portuguese (native Brazilian), and Spanish. I'm comfortable preparing meals, helping with homework, overnight stays, and can drive children to activities. I truly believe in creating fun, engaging experiences while maintaining the routines parents establish.

Maria went above and beyond while our children was in her care. She was very reliable and prompt. She's left an everlasting memory with entertainment and having the balance to teach them new things while making sure they are comfortable and having fun. Highly recommend her as a sitter, thank you Maria!
