Mariana provided excellent care for our one year old son. She looked after him for six hours a day, for a period of three weeks whilst we were between nurseries. Mariana made a good connection with my little boy, looked after him very carefully. He loved spending time with her older children. She made him healthy meals which he enjoyed. She was reliable, flexible and communicative. We are so glad we met Mariana and hope that she’ll be available to babysit in future.
