Hello! My name is Marianella. I’ve had several years of babysitting and nannying experience working with children of all ages newborn, infant, toddlers, and elementary age. I have two beautiful terrific kids 🥰. In addition, I’m from Colombia - South America so, I would like to share my culture with you.

Marie $19 per hour for 1 child
Hi future families! I am a caring, extremely organized, patient, and responsible person who loves being around children and animals. I have experience babysitting my nephew, which has taught me patience, attentiveness, and how to keep little ones happy and entertained. I’m nurturing, dependable, and easygoing. I also have a dog of my own, so I’m very comfortable around pets! I’d love to make your family feel comfortable knowing your little ones are in safe, caring hands. 😊
