About Mariela

Experience: 9 yrs

Hello all!! I love being the best friend of many babies! I am looking for a family that would need help for your babies from 0 months to 2 1/2 years old. I love working in the area. ( specially in Berkeley My schedule preferences include: a minimum of 32 hours per week. You are lucky enough to take care of your children, but if you feel the need to find someone to help you take care of them. I will be happy to help you keep your children safe and have fun exploring and learning with activities. . . . That help stimulate all their senses. My language skills (full fluency) include Spanish and Italian with basic English. Regardless of the common language, I believe in the universal language, which is love! This is what helps me to spend precious moments with the children! I will be available starting the last week of July 2026 Certificates include: First Aid NSC CPR NSC Preventive Health and Safety for Child Care Providers

I cannot express how wonderful it was having Mariela nanny our daughter. We hired Mariela when our daughter was 7 months old as my wife and I were transitioning back to work, and within days, Mariela felt like family. She is easygoing, loving, kind, creative, and patient. We felt so comfortable with her that we were completely at ease letting her take our daughter to the park alone after just a few days. Mariela is also incredibly dedicated; I have never once seen her be inattentive while caring for our child. She clearly loves children and thrives on interacting with them, always bringing new toys, books, and puppets to keep our baby engaged and entertained. Furthermore, her warm nature naturally attracts other parents and babies at the park, giving our daughter wonderful opportunities to socialize—something we couldn't provide otherwise. We now have a happy, playful toddler, and it is in no small part due to Mariela’s exceptional care. I would not hesitate for a second to work with her again.
