Hi families! My name is Mariah, and I’m a compassionate, nurturing, and dedicated childcare provider with a genuine passion for supporting children and families. I have experience as a nanny, caregiver, and training in postpartum doula care, I bring a unique combination of hands on experience, patience, and an understanding of the importance of individualized, attentive care. My philosophy centers around creating a safe, loving, and engaging environment where children feel supported, respected, and encouraged to thrive. I believe in gentle guidance, positive reinforcement, age-appropriate activities, and nurturing each child’s curiosity, confidence, and independence. As a mother myself, I understand firsthand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your little ones. I strive to provide families with peace of mind through open communication, reliability, and genuine compassion. I especially enjoy working with newborns, infants, and young children, and I love supporting families through the beautiful, sometimes overwhelming transitions of parenthood. Whether I’m providing newborn care, supporting developmental milestones, or creating fun and enriching experiences, my goal is to be a dependable, positive presence in your family’s life. I look forward to connecting with families and building meaningful, lasting relationships rooted in trust, respect, and exceptional care!

Mariah is EXTREMELY reliable and punctual. Very easy to please and accommodating. She has babysat both my children ages birth-7yrs, one of which requires some special accommodations. She follows directions and is an absolute joy to have around because she is so calm and sweet. Very clean and maintains the same energy. Will definitely be hiring again.

Mariah arrived on time & was incredibly sweet when we met. She watched my 2 kids & they haven't stopped asking about her since. My kids told me about all fun they had all day with her & at the end of the day she was even able to put them to bed (not too easy of a task sometimes) The next time I'm in need of a sitter, Mariah is definitely the first one I'm calling :)

Mariah was so attentive to both of my children. I have a 5 year old that needs lots of love And a new baby that I had to care for all while recovering from a c-section. I was so exhausted. But when Mariah came to help, i was more than relieved!! She had patience to teach my oldest and she was so good with my baby! I will always call on Mariah first!
