Hi, my name is Cynthia! I have been working with children for about proximately the last 5 years. I started by watching my nieces and nephews before taking care of my friends kids. I usually babysit children at ages 1-8 but I am willing to babysit kids a little bit older. While I do not own a car, or know how to drive one, but I do have my own means of transportation to arrive on time. I can even do light housework and do not mind animals being around.
“Cynthia has been amazing prompt and very helpful with my little one and our household. She pays attention always on time and my daughter enjoys time with her. ”
I’m currently in college studying English Literature and children development. I’ll be obtaining my teacher’s credentials. Not only am I going to school to teach and understand the development of a child, I’ve grown up being the youngest in a family of 13. I’ve babysat my sibling’s kids all the time, and it’s helped me a lot with my education. I grew up with 2 dogs and 1 cat, so I have a bit experience taking care of pets as well. A little about me, I love reading, writing poetry, crocheting and dancing! I’m very easy going and love talking and meeting new people. I’m also reliable ;) I hope to become a reoccurring nanny!

"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!"
