Marianna $25 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Marianna and I would love to help take care of your little ones. I used to sit small children (ages 4-7) years ago and would love to do so again. I’m a medical assistant by profession, therefore I know first aid well and have a few years experience working in pediatrics. I will care for your children well and protect them. I also love animals and working with them; our family has a yorkie and a cocker spaniel. I am patient, kind, and fun. I would love to work with you!

"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!"
