I have always enjoyed working with children and began babysitting for family and neighbors during high school and college, both on a part-time and occasional basis. These experiences gave me the chance to care for kids of different ages, from toddlers to school-aged children, and helped me develop patience, creativity, and responsibility. I truly love spending time with children, whether it’s helping with homework, reading stories, playing games, or just keeping them engaged in fun and safe activities. Families describe me as caring, dependable, and attentive, and I pride myself on creating a positive and safe environment. In addition to childcare, I’m comfortable assisting with light household tasks and pet care if needed. Overall, I see babysitting as more than just a job, it’s an opportunity to support families and be a trusted presence for their children.

Hello! I am a student at Northeastern University here in Boston, but am originally from Southern California. I am currently studying Math and Data Science. I have been in childcare for over five years now, and have extensive experience with children of all ages. I have made long term connections with families in California, and am looking to make some here in Boston! My experience includes caring for multiple children, cooking, cleaning, bathing, taking to school/activities, and entertaining multiple children at once. I am mainly looking for nights and weekends as I am currently working a full-time internship. Looking forward to meeting you and your family!

"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!"
