* I am currently only taking occasional babysitting opportunities. Hi! My name is Maria and I seriously love hanging out with children. They are so full of amazing energy and such a joy to be around. I am passionate about children because you can learn a lot from them, like how to enjoy the simple things in life. I have been working with children for over 8 years as a babysitter for friends and family. I am a former Registered Behavior Technician. I learned and gained a lot of experience working with children diagnosed with autism. I have worked with all ages from newborn to 16 years old. I love working with children and getting to know them and their individual personalities. I enjoy drawing, coloring, doing arts & crafts. I can bake cookies 🍪 and take them to the park, museum, zoo or any other fun places too. Kids are simply my favorite to be around. They are full of imagination. I also speak Spanish :) I look forward to meeting many families and building relationships with them so when they need part-time babysitting or occasional date nights, I can help take care of their lil ones. 💕

“Reliable, trustworthy, and wonderful with children. She is attentive, patient, and kept my child engaged . She also helped tidy up make house neat and organized, which I really appreciated. Communication was excellent and i would gladly hire her again.”

I am an HR Professional with a bachelor’s degree in Business yet part of me wishes I had an educational background to work with children. So babysitting gives me the opportunity to do what I enjoy the most! I was an urbansitter nanny all throughout college in San Francisco as my one and only job for 5 years. I cared for children of all ages, from 3 months - 14 years old. My long term families were for children ages 1-5 and 11-14. In addition to my own work experience, I grew up at home with a family childcare, thus I am comfortable being around up to 8 children at once since my mother is a licensed childcare provider. I currently babysit a 4 year old once a week (Jan 2024 - today) My favorite part about babysitting is teaching children through play. It’s rewarding to see a child grow and see how much they learn along the way. I have a tight schedule but if I am available to babysit on weekends and weekday evenings. I have a car and I am also fluent in Spanish.

“Finding a babysitter you can trust implicitly is rare, and finding someone like Ale is an absolute blessing. Ale has been a vital part of our family’s life since 2023, starting when our daughter was 3 years old. Our daughter absolutely adores her, and as parents, that peace of mind is priceless. Beyond how much our daughter loves her, Ale’s professionalism and work ethic are unmatched. She is always on time and completely reliable. She is warm, wonderfully pleasant, communicative, and has an intuition for what kids need in any given moment. What also sets Ale apart is her skill and heart as we navigate being foster parents. Bringing new children into our home means dynamics can shift quickly, but we can always trust Ale. No matter what combination of personalities, emotions, or needs exist on a given day, Ale handles every situation with exceptional skill, patience, and warmth. If you have the chance to hire Ale, do not hesitate for a second. She is a true gem, and any family would be beyond lucky to have her!”
