Maria was truly heaven-sent. As a brand new mom to my first child, Maria started on the second day I was home from the hospital and she came in and taught me everything I needed to know about caring for a newborn from breastfeeding to bathing to clipping nails. She has such a calming nature to her and both baby and I instantly felt safe and comfortable in her care. Despite the lack of sleep and hormones, I actually looked forward to the nights because Maria would come, make me a cup of tea and we would sit and chat while I breastfed the baby. She would come in and immediately take over, making sure the baby was comfortable, cleaning the kitchen area and doing any dishes and even helping with meal prep. She is by far the best investment I made post-pregnancy and I wish we could have her a permanent part of our household :)
