I am retired from Gilbert School district after 25 yrs as an Attendance Specialist. In the last few years I I have worked as both a Nanny and an elderly caregiver. I have also once worked as a dog trainer and am very comfortable around all animals . I have four children and two grandchildren, ages 14 and 7. I am very outgoing with a positive attitude. I am very excited to meet you and your children. I have excellent references upon request . Susan P.S. at this point in time, I am looking for occasional work, for instance , date nights .
Hi! I live in Gilbert with my fiance after we both graduated college at GCU. I studied film, and still work on set most weeks, but I have a lot of free time on days off! I started childcare with babysitting in 2020 when many familes needed extra childcare, and ended up nannying all through college for a couple of different families, mostly for kids in the 2-7 year old range. I also spent two summers working at the YMCA summer camp for preschool-1st graders, which taught me a lot about early childhood education. Since graduating (and having a bit more of a varied schedule due to film work), I switched to just babysitting (and the occasional dog/house sitting) on my days and weekends off. I am happy to help with dogs, but I am unfortunately allergic to cats! As far as myself, I love to read, play cozy games, and have been really loving traveling around the US this year! My favorite place to be in the world is on a beach, and I've been getting really into making my own lattes at home.
For two decades, l've found immense joy in nurturing children of all ages, from infants to pre-teens. My previous babysitting roles inspired me to dedicate myself to making a positive impact on young lives and supporting families. I am patient, creative, friendly, and comfortable enforcing household rules. I communicate with parents using their preferred method, providing regular updates. I enjoy playing outdoor sports, board games, and educational games. I am happy to care for up to five children and assist with cooking and light housekeeping. I am also trained in CPR. Ultimately, I strive to create a safe, fun, and enriching environment for your little ones, and I look forward to the possibility of bringing my experience and warmth into your home.

"We were incredibly grateful that Maya was able to help us out with a last-minute childcare emergency. She matched our 9-year-old's energy with arts & crafts, some quiet reading, and a walk around the neighborhood. We'd have Maya back in a heartbeat!"

"We used Tania for a last minute emergency. She responded very quickly. My daughter seemed to enjoy herself. My son napped most of the time. I enjoyed how she kept me updated by text."
