Booked by 9 families in Glenview, IL

Hello, my name is Pia and am currently in school for ultrasound tech. I am offering child care and household services. I have 4 years of experience as a daycare assistant watching over infants, toddlers, and kids (pre-k to 6th grade). I have also been babysitting different families ever since I was 16 years old. I enjoy my responsibilities of taking the kids to the park or the library, driving to/from school, tutoring, making art and crafts, or sing and dance to some music. I also offer light housekeeping services such as cooking, cleaning, laundry, and occasional grocery shopping. If you would like to add more housekeeping services, just let me know-- I will be flexible!

I like to include activities and games that not only entertain the little ones but also help with their cognitive and motor stimulation. I have experience with toddlers and also can take care of younger babies. I can provide help with house duties.

Hi! I have been working with kids for 15 years. I love playing music and games with the children I work with. I also like to bake and cook teaching the kids valuable skills as well. In the past five years I have babysat children ranging from 6 months old to 12 years old. I nannied and did e-learning/school during the pandemic with a first grader and fifth grader with a range of responsibilities from preparing meals to helping complete classwork to planning activities for the day. I am currently going back to school to be a special education teacher.

"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!"
