"Maria has been such a special part of ny daughter’s life. She cared for her beginning when she was 3 months old in the infant room at daycare and from day one, her motherly instincts were undeniable. She made that infant room what it was. As a first-time mom, leaving my baby was incredibly difficult but I knew my daughter was safe, loved, and genuinely cared for. It didn’t take long for my daughter to form a special bond with her, and seeing how excited she was to be with Maria made every drop-off so much easier. Even after we left, we stayed in touch because we couldn’t imagine not having Maria in our lives. She has continued to babysit for our daughter, and I trust her completely. As a mother of two wonderful daughters herself, she brings so much patience, kindness, and experience to every child she cares for. If you’re looking for someone who will love and care for your child as if they were her own, I can’t recommend Maria highly enough. Any family would be lucky to have her."

"Maria watched my two children for 2 years - when my son was 1yo to 3yo and until my daughter was 1yo. She was like having a third parent. She was very attentive to my kids’ needs and so loving. Maria was incredibly reliable and trustworthy. She still watches my kids sometimes for date nights. She is also one of my kids’ emergency contacts at school… that’s how much we trust her and adore her. She’s a wonderful person and an amazing caretaker!"
