I have been working in childcare for over twenty five years, very passionate about it. I am patient and understanding of children. Love to explore the out doors doing nature walk and exploring bugs, entertaining and amusing them with stories, puzzles artwork and crafts.
I have a strong background in caregiving with hands-on experience caring for children, seniors, and pets, along with providing household support. Over the past few years, I’ve worked with families to provide dependable, compassionate, and patient care tailored to individual needs. My experience includes preparing meals, helping with daily routines, administering medication, offering companionship, and keeping a safe, clean environment. I’ve cared for children of various ages, from infants to preteens, and I'm known for being nurturing, responsible, and creative—often engaging kids with educational games, crafts, and outdoor play. I’ve also assisted seniors with mobility support, light housekeeping, errands, and emotional companionship, which taught me the importance of empathy and trust. I’m naturally patient, attentive, and calm under pressure—qualities that are essential in any caregiving role. I’m also organized, respectful of people’s privacy and routines, and take pride in creating a warm, supportive atmosphere wherever I work. Whether it’s a child, an elderly loved one, or a beloved pet, I always give 100% of my care, attention, and respect.
I am a certified teacher who has 25 years of experience as an educator. I offer child care and senior services. I am certified in ages birth to six grade. I can tutor your child in reading and writing. In addition, I am skilled at addressing the social-emotional needs of children. In addition, I have provided senior care for my dad and grandmother. I can provide services such as cooking, running errands, and companionship ( walks, playing board games, etc.).
hi families I'm looking a way to make extra money so I'm interested in occasional jobs. I'm not looking a babysitter position but I'll help with chores around the house, unboxing, light cleaning, go errands, etc ...

I’m a grandmother with over 30 years of hands-on experience caring for children of all ages. I’m patient, loving, reliable, and skilled in routines, safety, meals, and play. I’ve also supported seniors and managed household needs with care and attention.

"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!"
Hillary S., parent
"We used Tania for a last minute emergency. She responded very quickly. My daughter seemed to enjoy herself. My son napped most of the time. I enjoyed how she kept me updated by text."
