Hi! My name is Maria, and I am currently a student. I offer child care, senior care, and household support services. I have extensive experience working with children of all ages.

Himani $40 per hour for 1 child

I’m a caregiver and teacher who brings the vibe of a camp counselor and friend. I’m the eldest daughter of an immigrant family and have been working with children since the age of 7. I am comfortable bringing out my own inner child and creating a beautiful mix of learning and play. This year, I put my teaching skills to the test in the classroom and explored subbing for grades K-5. When I care for your children, I will come with books and games suited for their age level. All other details can be personalized when we meet. Let’s have an amazing day together.

"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!"
