Kailiti 1 review
$28 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Daly City, CA

Hi! I’m Kailiti and I am a preschool teacher! I’m also a recent grad of Stanford University, where I studied linguistics and education. I’m offering childcare and household services. Working with children brings me a lot or joy and I’ve been in childcare and education jobs for the past eight years, including as a science teacher in schools, a summer camp counselor, and of course as a babysitter! I am comfortable working with children ages 2mo-12yrs and I also have experience working with children with high support needs, including children with autism and neurodevelopmental disabilities. I love to facilitate imaginary play and outdoor activities as well as arts and crafts, and I am also happy to help with homework! I also cook, clean, do laundry, and can run errands. If needed, I can drive for dropoffs/pickups. I am also a nationally registered Emergency Medical Technician!

"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!"
