A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Maria Sandra, I’m a mother of 3. Two adult women, and a 8 year old boy that has autism; so I have tons of experiences with Children from all ages. I have worked as a full time sitter for the last two years. I worked with twin boys from oct. 2022-dec. 2023. They were 4 months old when I began working with them and about 1 and a half when I stopped. I worked from jan. 2024 until may 2024 with a little girl. She was 8 months old when I started and a little over one when I stopped working with her. I am CPR certified, and I can cook, do lighthouse work, and am very flexible if you need me. Although I do not speak English fluently (I speak Portuguese and some Spanish) I am more than happy to communicate over the phone, and if needed one of my daughters can help. I never had a problem with communication with neither of my previous jobs. I look forward to hearing from you!
