Hi there! I’m a 54year-old mom with a 23-year-old son in college and a super sweet 10-year-old mini poodle. I love hiking, family time, and being around kids and pets. I work from home full-time for Stanford Health Care, so I’m available after 3:30pm on weekdays, plus evenings, late stays, and weekends. I can help with babysitting, school pick-ups, dog sitting, dog walking, driving, cooking, and light cleaning—whatever makes your life easier. I’ve been caring for kids my whole life (nieces, nephews, friends’ little ones), and I truly enjoy it. I’m also looking to make some extra money to help support my son’s college costs. For peace of mind: • Global Entry (clear background) • Clean driving record • Total dog lover! If you’d like to chat and see if we’re a good match, feel free to reach out. Thanks for considering me!

I am a Child Development graduate from SJSU with 5 years of experience as an after-school teacher. I have 1 year of professional nanny experience, and a couple years of non-professional babysitting for family and friends. I have experience designing and implementing developmentally appropriate activities for infants, toddlers, and school-age children, including art, math, and English/literacy-based learning. I also enjoy building strong relationships with children and families while supporting learning, creativity, and emotional growth. I am calm, nurturing, and reliable, and I take pride in creating a positive and supportive environment. I also value open communication and consistency in daily routines. Looking forward to connecting with families 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!"
