A little bit about me

Hello, name is Maria Cruz, I’m 27 years old.
First & foremost, I’m a mama to a beautiful 18m old babygirl. I am currently working as a behaviorist at a day program for adults with disabilities, but I’m looking for change & hope to go back to nannying, which is what I truly have a passion for. I am a loving, trustworthy, responsible, patient, & fun nanny looking for my next nanny family to work with, but most importantly connect & grow with. I love music, arts/crafts, & being outdoors in nature where I feel the most grounded.
I am CPR certified and have an RBT certification as well. Before becoming a mom myself, I was a nanny for 7 years. Along with my experience as a nanny, I also volunteered as a Sunday school teacher at my church for 3 years. I’m very thankful for all the skills I’ve acquired throughout the years as a nanny because I now get to apply all of that in my own journey as a mom and hopefully with my next nanny family as well.
