“Mayra was our daughter's nanny for 1 year (6-18 months of age) and we had a wonderful experience. We met Mayra during the thick of the pandemic and we could not have had a better partner. Our daughter, my wife and i love Mayra and it was with a very heavy heart that we parted ways when we determined that our daughter needed to go to daycare/school. Mayra was always extremely careful and loving with our daughter and we always felt she was in great hands. She formed a very especial bond with our daughter and always stimulated her physically and intellectually. Our daughter easily completed all of the age-appropriate transitions with Mayra's help. They read, played, went to the park, and did arts and crafts. Mayra also cooked frequently for our daughter and fed her healthy and balanced meals. Our daughter was always happy to see Mayra. She has a wonderfully calm demeanor that helped our daughter be calm most of the times. When our daughter slept Mayra helped us with our baby's laundry and folding clothes. We have met other nannies and Mayra definitely stands out. From a personality perspective, Mayra is very discreet, easy going and a pleasure to be around. We highly recommend her.”
