Hello! I'm Maria, a holistic therapist and proud mother of an 18-year-old. With 15 years of experience supporting families with children of all ages, I have developed strong skills and received wonderful references. Originally from Argentina, I'm fluent in Spanish. I'm currently seeking a family in need of support 1-2 days a week, as well as occasional help. My services include feeding, bathing, light cooking, assisting with laundry, and transporting children to events and activities.

Feel free to reach out for more information or to schedule a meeting. I look forward to connecting!

We are so happy we connected with Maria! She’s already watched our baby daughter twice, and it gave us the chance to have a night out for the first time since she was born. We’ll definitely ask Maria to do it again, and it’s because she connected with our baby right away and has a ton of experience and knowledge that made us feel completely comfortable that the baby was in good hands.

She’s been wonderful with our one-year-old. Always on time, very patient, and really engaged. Our daughter lights up when she walks in. We genuinely appreciate the comfort that comes leaving our daughter in Maria's care.

Maria is such an angel. She last minute accepted the job after I was cancelled on the day of. I was panicked. Turned out to be the best match. My kids loved her. My daughter is a tough critic too! Will hire again! 

We highly recommend Maria ! She is great with both of our children and very dependable! 

Maria watched our three boys and infant daughter. She was great to collaborate with and flexible. She also has the magic touch with the baby—attentive, sweet and calming. In addition to being great with the kids, she always left our home in better shape than when she came. 

Maria has been so helpful to our family! She has been caring for our almost two year-old on Saturday mornings and he loves her! She is so creative and imaginative in her play with him, which keeps him engaged and happy. I love that she speaks in Spanish with him, as this is something we’re trying to do with him as well. It feels good as a parent to know that your children are safe and happy with the person caring for them, and Maria is definitely this person for us. 

Maria has occasionally cared for our 5 month old as well, and she is great with her too.

Maria has been punctual, reliable, and very easy to communicate with. We have never had any concerns with the care she has provided our children and now that we don’t need her as often we know the kids will miss her. We highly recommend her to any family in need of child care.

Maria has been the best help for our family! She is so kind and our four year old absolutely loves her. She is flexible, considerate, punctual and always willing to help out on short notice! I cannot recommend her enough! 

Maria is wonderful! She’s so patient and sweet with our little girl. We highly recommend her. 

Maria is a fantastic nanny. She is punctual, responsible and very caring with kids. I hire her every time I visit Chicago and go out with my husband. I highly recommend her!

We love Maria. We have twins and she is so handy with them . We are happy to have found her . .

Maria has watched our 2 young boys, several times for us, and she is always great with them. She is very reliable, punctual and a great communicator. We definitely recommend her and enjoy getting to see her when she comes.

Maria is so amazing with our babies! She took such great care of our two twin baby boys and our 2 year old daughter who is usually shy, even loved her and felt so comfortable around her! We're so glad we found her to watch our kiddos! :)

Maria has helped us out with weekend babysitting and we adore her. She is reliable, on time, and my kids love her. They immediately took to her when they met her and asked when she was coming back. We definitely will hire her again!

Maria has been watching our three girls (5yr old and twin 3yr olds) for 3 years now. She is very hands on and great with the kids. Our kids look forward to the days Maria watches them! 

Maria really cares about children. She is a wonderful caregiver. She has been providing care for my oldest since she was 9 months old and now she is almost 5 years old. We love Maria!

Maria is a great sitter. She is our first call when we need someone. She is great with our kids, kind, trustworthy and very flexible. Highly recommend!

Interviewed with Maria and she was very friendly, helpful, and I look forward to working with her in the future. Good references too!

Maria is a phenomenal nanny and I highly recommend her services. I hired her in 2007 and she's now a part of our family. Maria is an excellent care giver, responsible, fun loving person. She took time to plan out activities for my 3 kids and my children just adore her. She has her own transportation, so commuting back & forth to our home wasn't an issue for her. She not only takes care of the kids but will assist to do light house cleaning as well. She's very organized and thorough. Definitely a super nanny.
