Mariana Maia
San Diego
Summary
I’m Mariana, 28 years old, originally from Brazil. I’m passionate about creating a strong and loving bond with the children I care for, and I’ve built lasting relationships with all the families I’ve worked for. Families often describe me as calm, patient, and reliable. I enjoy spending time outdoors, going for walks, and staying active, especially when I get to share those moments with the kids. I believe in building trust through kindness and consistency, and I take pride in being someone both parents and children can truly count on.
