Maria 1 review
$20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Maria. I am a caring and fun childcare provider. I am experienced with all ages of children. I have cared for babies and children ages 2 to 10 years old. I have multiple years of experience working as a teacher assistant in a daycare and an afterschool care program for elementary school students. I have also worked as a day camp counselor, and have many art, games and movement activities that I can facilitate with your child(ren). I am a punctual and responsible person. I am always on time for work and in a positive mood ready to care for your child(ren). I am bilingual (Spanish) and I am able to communicate in Spanish or English. I have experience working in immersion daycares and teaching children Spanish through games, music and art activities. I am an excellent communicator and I take pride in my work. I have excellent work references from former families and employers. I am especially interested in finding a family looking for a nanny over the summer and/ or a family that is looking for childcare part-time or full-time. If you have any questions for me or have a job opportunity please let me know! I look forward to meeting you and your family!

Maria is truly one of the sweetest and most kindhearted people I know, and I cannot recommend her enough. She is excellent and incredibly attentive with children, always paying close attention to their needs and safety while creating a warm, positive environment. At the same time, she has a natural ability to confidently guide kids in their learning and development, helping them grow into respectful and well-mannered individuals. She is bilingual, which is a huge benefit, and she brings years of consistent, hands-on experience caring for children throughout the week, both before and after school. Any family would be lucky to have her. I wouldn’t recommend anyone else but her.

Booked by 3 families in Pacifica, CA

Taking care of children and supporting their growth has always been something I feel deeply passionate about. With six years of experience, I've cared for kids from newborns to 10 years old, and I truly enjoy creating a positive, loving space where they can feel safe, learn, and thrive. I hold a degree in education and feel confident caring for up to two children at a time. I love introducing fun, educational games that encourage learning through play and support each child's unique growth. I communicate clearly with parents - whether it's at pickup, by text, or through whatever method they prefer - and I always aim to be reliable and easy to work with. I'm CPR and First Aid certified, have my own car, and am very comfortable with pets. My goal is to provide a safe, engaging, and nurturing environment where your child feels happy, supported, and cared for.

Alana was our daughter’s caregiver for just about one year. She was a light in our daughter’s life! Alana took care of our daughter and a friend’s in a nanny share which we hosted in our homes. She took care of the girls when they were just under 1 to about the age of 2. Alana has great experience with infants, toddlers, and made sure the girls were safe, happy, and healthy. Alana is very punctual and communicative always sending us photos and updates on the girls throughout the day. She helped us to transition the girls to cow milk as well as transition from 2 naps to 1 nap a day. She was always caring and kind with the girls as well as patient when things would be more challenging. She helped to take the girls on many adventures and keep them safe while doing so. We trusted her to drive the girls to the park, library, beach, etc. Our daughter was very comfortable with Alana and we were very sad to transition to daycare but knew we needed to have the girls be in more social situations for preschool eventually. We would highly recommend Alana to any family looking for a responsible, caring, supportive Nanny!

"We absolutely LOVE Isa — our family was so fortunate to have found her through UrbanSitter. I'm a first-time mom, and it took me a long time to find a full-time nanny I could trust to care for our sweet infant boy. Our boy connected with her immediately, and we couldn't have asked for anyone else to care for him. Her calming presence was also perfect for parents like us who work from home. We feel so lucky UrbanSitter helped us find someone who has truly become a part of our family."

"I was so stressed about finding a part-time nanny for my 14-month-old son, who has moderate separation anxiety and hadn't been left with anyone but family before, but we were both immediately at ease in Buhay's presence. Her empathy and commitment to understanding child development are apparent in every interaction I've witnessed between her and my toddler. I feel very lucky to have found her."

Kamilah W., mom of one

photo of quoted parent Eric

"Erna watched our now 5 year old daughter and 3 year old son for a few years. She is punctual, responsible, honest, and playful. What we appreciated most was that she was thoughtful in ensuring that we had a little break; for example, when the kids were clingy, she was able to divert their attention with games or songs or walks to the park. We felt very comfortable leaving our kids with Erna because of her caring nature and experience that spans a decade (including being a live-in nanny)."
