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.

Hi Families! I’m a caring, dependable, and experienced caregiver with 20+ years of childcare experience. In addition to working with children over the years, I’m also a mother and grandmother, which has given me a strong understanding of children’s needs, routines, and the importance of creating a safe, loving environment. I’m patient, responsible, and genuinely enjoy caring for children of all ages. I can help with daily routines such as meals and snacks, playtime, supervision, and creating a calm, comfortable space for kids to feel happy and cared for. I also have a clean driving record, which makes me a reliable option for families who may need transportation help. I am a native Spanish speaker and also speak conversational English, so I’m happy to support bilingual families as well. Families can count on me to be trustworthy, attentive, clean, and nurturing, and I always strive to provide dependable care that gives parents peace of mind.

"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."

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)."
