About Mabel
Experience: 1 yr
COVID-19 vaccinated
I'm 36 years old and I'm the mother of a 4 years old non-verbal autistic boy. Being myself a mother of an atypical child, I know the challenge of finding someone to take care of your child and trusting that person. I knew other families with children with disabilities and developmental delays have similar experiences and I knew I could be that trusty worthy person being able to provide nanny/babysitter services. I'm originally from Brazil and have been living in Boston for around nine years, and I speak both English and Portuguese. I also have a certificate in Caregiver Skills Training for Families of Children with Developmental Delays or Disabilities which provided me skills to help the child communicate more often, getting and keeping children engaged in everyday activities, teaching new skills like dressing and hand washing in small steps, preventing challenging behaviors and understanding those behaviors, etc. Please feel free to reach out to me anytime.

Mabel and our 3 month old hit it off immediately. We are so grateful for her ability to jump right in and take over the moment she arrives. We work from home while she’s here, but she is so confident and comfortable with our son that we are able to get work done and get in and out of the house with no distractions! Mabel is also adaptable to his ever-changing feeding schedules, nap times, and how involved we want to be during the day. She’s helping him grow and is really attentive and proactive to his needs. I couldn’t have asked for a better person to help my wife transition back into work!
