A little bit about me
I am a responsible, patient, and loving childcare provider with over two years of experience as an au pair in the United States. As the eldest of seven siblings, I began caring for two of my younger brothers at the age of 14 while my mother worked full-time. My natural maturity and strong sense of responsibility allowed me to manage their daily needs with confidence. I also helped care for my baby cousin, whom I love like a niece, since she was an infant. These early experiences shaped my passion for childcare and taught me how to nurture, guide, and support children with love and structure. I specialize in creating safe, stimulating, and emotionally supportive environments where children can grow happily.

A little bit about me
I have a Master's in Education and 3 years of experience working in the teaching field at the early learning level. Not only can I help with curriculum and instruction, but I think the best part is going out and doing fun, cultural activities with the kids like museums, parks, playgrounds, planetariums, etc. I do have piercings and tattoos, and occasionally color my hair. Please don't hesitate to reach out if you think I may be a fit for your family. While I am currently living in Fl, I want to relocate to the DC area.

"Mariana and I met at a playground near our neighborhood and, since then Mariana has being such a great support when I need someone to help me with my little energetic one, Olivia. I have required Mariana’s services when me and my husband have date nights or occasionally when one of us is traveling for work.
Olivia loves spending time with Mariana and learning some Spanish words. I keep in mind her opinion since she is the one that spends time with Mariana and her feedback is always good.
Every time I talk to Mariana, she is kind and respectful I have no complains she is awesome !!!"
