Hello! It’s great to meet you ! I work as a substitute teacher during the school year and pick up occasional jobs here as well. I teach Kindergarten through twelfth grade and am very familiar and comfortable with that wide age range! Besides that, I have also worked in other school districts as an after school leader, where I was used to working one on one with students as well as leading large groups of kiddos as well. I have also nannied for a family with two babies, ages 2 1/2 and 9 months until I started working as a permanent substitute. I find kids’ energetic and kind personalities a joy to be around and I love working with kids for those reasons! I have a clean driving record and happily offer pickup and drop off from school if needed. I can offer school related assistance including homework help, arts and crafts, light tidying around the household, and anything else that I may be of help in. My priority is always to ensure that this is a great experience for both the family and children, as for me as a caretaker! Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns and I will be more than happy to answer them! I am excited to meet you and potentially work with your family and little ones! I am fully vaccinated as well as have all of the boosters and am CPR Certified for all ages.

Hi everyone I’m Jocelyn is look forward to offering my services of child care, household services if needed as well as pet care. I’m the oldest of four siblings, and growing up caring for my brothers and sisters taught me patience, responsibility, and how rewarding it is to support children as they grow. I have experience with children of all ages whether that is an infant, toddler, or kid. I’ve also helped care for my younger cousins which has also helped me gain experience with kids of different ages and personalities. I truly love children and have a soft spot for them. I think children are very smart and curious, and just need patience, understanding, and someone open minded to guide them and listen. I also worked at a kids club in a gym, where I cared for multiple children at once. This taught me how to manage groups safely, keep them engaged, and ensure each child felt seen and supported. Along with my experience with children, I’ve grown up around animals. My family had three dogs and a cat, so I’m very familiar with caring for pets and understand how loving and important they are in a family. I enjoy spending time with animals, giving them attention, and making sure they feel safe and happy. I’m a caring, gentle, and dependable person who treats others like my own family. I take pride in creating a safe, nurturing, and positive environment, whether helping with homework, planning little fun activities, or looking after pets. I’m excited to meet your family and provide the support and care that you may need.

Caring for a child means supporting their safety, growth, and emotional well-being with consistency, respect, and compassion. I bring those values to every family I serve. I am an experienced, energetic caregiver and mother, CPR/AED and CPI certified, with formal study in child development as part of my degree requirements. I am active, dependable, and thrive in supportive, structured environments that help children build confidence, healthy habits, and strong social skills. Beyond my professional experience, I volunteer with children in the special needs community and youth sports, which has strengthened my ability to adapt, lead with patience, and respond calmly in high-stress situations. I take pride in being fair, trustworthy, and genuinely invested in each child’s well-being. I would be honored to support your family and provide a loving, safe, and encouraging environment for your loved one.

"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!"
