Hi! I'm from a big family so I always had children around and last year I worked as a nanny. I'm reliable and the kids love me! I'm always a happy, fun person to have around.

I have worked in the professional nanny industry for close to fifteen years. Before that, I worked as an occasional babysitter and camp counselor. I’m certified in first aid and infant/child/adult CPR. I have an undergraduate degree in interdisciplinary studies (social science concentration) from The Catholic University of America. As well as a graduate certificate in human services from Wilmington University. I’m a patient and empathetic person. I think children have a contagious sense of wonder and happiness. They truly make the world a better place. I’m currently looking for occasional babysitting jobs outside my regular nanny position. I look forward to hearing from you!

Hi, my name is Maria Lopez. I’m 27 years old and I have several years of experience caring for children and assisting older adults. I’m a responsible, patient, and trustworthy person who truly enjoys helping others and creating a safe, warm environment. I recently obtained my nursing license and I’m currently in the process of transferring it to the state of California. During this time, I’m looking for a flexible nanny or caregiver position that allows me to continue with my student schedule, while supporting a family with dedication, respect, and professionalism. I would love the opportunity to become a reliable and caring part of your household.

"We were incredibly grateful that Maya was able to help us out with a last-minute childcare emergency. She matched our 9-year-old's energy with arts & crafts, some quiet reading, and a walk around the neighborhood. We'd have Maya back in a heartbeat!"
