Hello! I am an youth mentor and artist in Columbus. I have supported youth in a variety of settings over the past ten years and am comfortable with infants through teenagers. I've taught art, cooking, gardening, science, math, social studies, language arts, and nature-based exploration for afterschool programs, summer camps, and as a school teacher. I am patient, caring, and compassionate with youth while also maintaining structures and routines. I work well with parents and caregivers to meet the needs of your specific family. I am organized, punctual, and clean, respectful, and a good communicator. Please feel free to send me booking requests or a direct message of inquiry. Thank you!
Hello Parents, I’m currently available for occasional babysitting and part-time childcare in Oakland. My childcare journey began in 2009, when I worked as an Au Pair in the Netherlands for a wonderful family with a seven-year-old boy and a nine-year-old girl. After moving to the U.S. in 2011, I continued babysitting and have since gained experience with infants, multiples, and school-age children. Beyond keeping kids safe and supported, I focus on modeling kindness, curiosity, and respect. I enjoy supporting children as they build confidence, independence, and thoughtfulness. I have extensive experience with infants, babies (including multiples), toddlers, and school-age children. My most recent long-term childcare role was in 2021, caring for a one-year-old baby girl. Since then, I’ve continued babysitting regularly and maintaining long-term relationships with families. I’ve studied Child Development at Merritt College in Oakland, hold a Bachelor’s degree in Advertising with a minor in Cinema, and recently completed my MBA. Outside of work, I’m a brown belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and enjoy walking, roller skating, playing music, reading, and watching movies. I’d love to meet your family and provide thoughtful, reliable care for your children. Thank you!

“My 2 boys asked "when can Guadalupe come back?" as soon as she left. I asked what they liked and they said "she's so nice!" So, she was totally great to have over, and I would definitely ask for her help in the future!”

"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!"
