Booked by 5 families in Terra Ceia, FL

Hi, I’m Claudia. I’ve been a babysitter on and off throughout my college career. I consider babysitting to be very rewarding. I enjoy spending time with kids and they always puts a smile on my face. It is great to know I can make a difference in a kid’s life, as well as it gives me the opportunity to gain experience in my field. I acquired my bachelor’s degree in psychology. I have my DCF 40 clock hours as well as First Aid/CPR certification. I have experience as a Preschool teacher working with kids 1-5 yrs of age, but mainly focusing on 1yr olds.

“Fast responder, was very reliable and she took care of our newborn and our 2-year-old seamlessly. Thank you so much! ”

Hello :) I consider fostering a child's growth and development the most important task in the world. I am dedicated to making a positive, lasting impact on the lives of the families I support. With 13 years of experience, I offer patient, calm, and creative care for children ranging from infants to pre-teens. I hold a graduate degree in medical science, which has provided me with a strong foundation for supporting early childhood development. I am fully CPR trained and First Aid trained. I enjoy engaging children through sports and educational games that promote learning. I am very comfortable enforcing household rules and always follow your preferred communication method to keep you updated on your child's day. Since I have my own car, I am reliable and ready to assist with your family's needs. I look forward to the possibility of becoming a trusted partner in your child's journey.

I am a 4th year Optometry Student and Nova Southeastern University. I have some experience children more so from a clinical optometry and vision therapy standpoint. I believe this to be a unique skill set that allows me to more observant of your child. I am CPR certified as it is required for my profession. I have five younger cousins that I’ve had the privilege to watch and help take care over the years. I have a little bit of experience as a caretaker as I was briefly my grandmother’s caretaker up until her passing. My boyfriend and I have a dog so I’m comfortable taking care and being around them. I believe I would describe myself as dedicated and passionate. With children, I can be very fun but I also know when it is necessary to be serious.

"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!"
