I love being a babysitter and have been watching newborns, infants, toddlers, and kids since I was about 13 years old. My responsibilities have included driving to/from school, crafts, tutoring, and even just keeping children entertained for a few hours! I consider myself an extremely responsible and attentive person; I have always loved working with kids!!

Diana was great! She was on time, thorough and very respectful & open to feedback. Will definitely be scheduling her again!

Hi parents! I’m a caring and dependable babysitter with 4 years experience supporting children of all ages, and I truly love what I do. Families know me as warm, patient, and attentive I’m the kind of sitter who makes kids feel safe, happy, and engaged through play, learning, and gentle structure. Whether it’s helping with homework, keeping routines on track, or simply sharing fun activities, I bring kindness, energy, and reliability to every job. My goal is always to give parents peace of mind while treating their little ones with the same care I’d want for my own 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!"
