About Maura
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
I've been caring for children for over 30 years and pets for 15 years. I have raised to 3 wonderful boys (31, 29, and 24 years), which have been the greatest pleasures. I continue to immensely enjoy. I have been employed at a public school system for the past 19 years working with children on the Autism spectrum. The area of special needs I work dominantly with is with children of ASD. I work as an ABA tutor, utilizing techniques of applied behavioral analysis to minimize and prevent challenging behaviors. Prior to this, I was a licensed daycare provider and owned/managed a home daycare center within my Wrentham home for 14 years and cared for children from the ages newborn - 7 years old. I also have been a dog owner of a Beagle and Dachshund for 15 years. Lastly, I have done senior care and cared for my mom for two years while she was in hospice. Looking forward to working together..

I have four children and Maura has been caring for them for many years. Whenever My husband and I have somewhere to go, she is always the one we ask. She is caring, considerate, nurturing, engaging, and they love her so much. She has helped so many times with homework and school projects, and helps the kids break down their work when at times they feel overwhelmed. She has a way of easing their mind and creating positively and her guidance has been so valuable to me as well. Last Christmas we also got two puppies, and when we wanted to go on a few weekend trips, she offered to watch the dogs! She stayed at our house and was so thorough with questions regarding their routine, etc. She even sent us pictures and updates of the dogs (just as she's done with the kids)! Maura is amazing and we feel so lucky to have her in our lives and we are so grateful that we never have worry when leavening our children (and dogs)!
