I am a 38 year old ex professional Field Hockey player, and as a hockey coach I have always been around children. Now, as a dedicated Childcare Worker and Sports Coach I love taking care and playing with children. With a strong focus on safety and effective parent-teacher communication, I am committed to enhancing children's learning outcomes and emotional growth.

I provide confident and soft communication with the ability to talk to children on their level and have excellent listening skills. Enthusiasm - I genuinely love children and I show them that I enjoy spending time with them demonstrating real enthusiasm for any game or activity we play.

In my lasts childcare jobs I assisted children with eating, toileting, and monitored during the nap time. Ensured that the children needs are met at all time. Established the necessary care for children's needs consistently with their age and stage of development. Some activities I enjoy doing with children include painting, drawing, building models, memory games, dance and movement and imaginative play.

“Maria was amazing, she met the needs of Eleanor at every opportunity and was fantastic all week long. She has the most amount of patience and care, and Eleanor had no problems staying with her without me around. We couldn’t fault her and are so pleased she was available to be our nanny for the week.”
