I am a recent grad from Wayzata High School; incoming freshman at Macalester College! My caregiving journey began through teaching Indian dance to children between the ages of 4 and 13. This role allowed me to create a fun, culturally rich, and structured environment where kids could build confidence, and learn discipline through movement. It also gave me insight into how different children learn and communicate, helping me develop patience, creativity, and strong communication skills. In addition to my teaching background, I’ve worked with children from infancy to 14 years old in a domestic violence shelter, where I provided supervision and emotional support. This experience required a high level of sensitivity, flexibility, and calmness, as I supported kids navigating trauma and transitions. I learned how to quickly build trust, create a sense of safety, and meet children’s emotional and physical needs in a thoughtful, nonjudgmental way. I’m experienced in managing multiple children at once, maintaining routines, and responding to a wide range of behaviors with empathy and consistency. Whether I’m caring for a newborn, helping with homework, or just being a comforting presence, I bring reliability, kindness, and a genuine love for helping others. I’m also happy to assist with light household tasks, organization, or pet care as needed. My goal in every caregiving role is to provide a safe, positive, and supportive environment for children. I'm very excited for the opportunity to work with kids, and would love to use my academic and artistic experiences to go through some engaging activities with them!

I love kids with a passion and it’s so fun and rewarding to hear their laughs and see their smiles as friendships are formed. Although I have only babysat and was a nanny growing up starting in middle school and throughout high school, I’m confident in my motherhood era and I would take care of your child(ren) as they are my own!

I am a fun, caring, God-fearing, trustworthy individual. I come from a Christian background and a big family. I’m currently a Montessori lead teacher and I’ve been in a lead role for a year and a half. Prior to that, I’ve been nannying for 2 years in home before switching to an early childhood center. I recently had a baby girl April 2024, I love my job, but I’m looking to become an independent home caregiver to create a more intentional and focused environment. I’m an active member of my church, and when I’m not at church, I am at family events or at home with my family! I want to use my wisdom to be a part of the development of children and make an impact in their life while helping families. I’m here to serve others! I have CPR, AED, and first aid certification from the American Heart Association. I have some Montessori training as well. In my past I obtained CNA certification, and I’ve worked with the elderly for 3+ years before switching to working with children. My heart is with the children and the elderly. I have experience with ages 0-10; I prefer to work with infants up to ages 4 or 5. I am willing to take on kids over that age if there is an infant or another child. I can do anything needed by the parent. I enjoy all activities! Anything from painting, reading, arts and crafts, language exploration, sign language, and more. Since I have my own infant I would like to open my home to families instead of traveling.

"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!"
