Rebeca $30 per hour for 1 child

I am a Professional Nanny with over 15 years experience taking care of children of all ages, including multiple siblings at the same time. I take care of all children as if they were my own. I am nurturing, caring, and will always have their best interest in mind. I always look forward to meeting with parents to truly customize the experience, after all, no 2 kids are the same! Discussions include food preferences, personal habits, restrictions, etc. Maintaining a safe and positive environment is very important to me. I enjoy preparing various activities, playing games, and meal preparation. I can be available to help with laundry, grocery shopping, assist your children with their studies as well as assist in pick ups and drop offs as needed. I know it's not easy to leave your children alone with someone new, but rest assured, they will be in great, comforting, and patient hands. I look forward to meeting with you and your family soon!

"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!"
