Mature and trustworthy babysitter. CPR and First Aid certified, consistently received positive feedback from parents. I have enjoyed working with newborns up 10 years old. I'm looking for a new family to support in caring for their children. I'm a mother of 2 amazing teenagers they are 18 and 24. I garden during my time off, seeing the blooms is very rewarding. This is a reference from Mrs. Stacei bass Marisol has provided care on a regular basis for my 15 month son since he was 8 weeks old. She's incredibly caring and helpful. Marisol spends a lot of time outside with him and keeps his active when indoors. She does not use her phone other than pictures while watching him and is always responsive to my check-in text messages.
“On time, engaging and very attentive with our three busy boys. ”

“I got stuck in DC because of flight cancellations and ending up with my 3 year old daughter and prep meeting with clients for an important next day meeting. Mary Beth arrived at the hotel promptly (in advance) and with only a request that afternoon. My daughter loved her. Indeed, she was able to do things with Patina that are hard for me -- get her to draw, tell stories, get her PJs on, and get into bed on time. Terrific.”

"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!"
Hillary S., parent
