Hi! I’m Amy, and I’ve been babysitting since high school. Working with kids has always been something I genuinely enjoy. I graduated from the University of Virginia, where I majored in Psychology and Spanish, and some of my favorite courses focused on infant and child development. I currently work for a school district, primarily with elementary school children, and also have experience as a medical assistant, which has strengthened my ability to stay calm, attentive, and organized while caring for others. I plan on returning to graduate school and am particularly interested in occupational therapy, as I’m passionate about helping children grow and thrive. Having a younger sister with a disability taught me patience, empathy, and how to connect with children of all abilities. I’m COVID vaccinated and comfortable helping with household tasks, meals, homework, and pets, and I’m very hands-on and attentive with kids. I’m available most evenings and weekends and enjoy building meaningful, lasting connections with children and their families.
Nickname (preferred): Vicky I have many amazing experience with young children (toddler+), my true love is pup care!! In the past decade I've dog cared for dogs old and young, social and antisocial, and those between homes. In order to give each pup the unique care and experience they deserve, I primarily care for pups one at a time, and only those with whom I can form a genuine bond. Lunchtime and after work walks are my favorite, 1-2x/wk. Regularly scheduled care is preferred. I am fully employed but work from home, and so have flexibility. Whether you have a yard, live in an apartment, or need your pet crated, your pet will always be safe and sound in my care.
“The best sitter I ever had, dependable, very caring, and attending to all needs. Highly recommended.”

"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!"
