40/M/Apex - I grew up with a Golden Retriever named Fenway, a Vizsla named Punkin, and now I have a 4 year old, 6lb Yorkie named Mosby. I have successfully watched a French Bulldog on a few occasions and have been referred to as the BryMCA...so there's that.

Hello I’m Mariah, a young but seasoned babysitter with nearly a decade of hands-on experience and a background in elementary education. As a dedicated teacher, I bring a wealth of knowledge in child development and learning strategies to my babysitting sessions.

From epic storytelling sessions to arts and crafts extravaganzas, I'm here to ignite your child's imagination while keeping them safe and happy CPR and First Aid certified.

I grew up in a family of 9 kids. My mother also owned a daycare and had a masters degree in special education. I had a great example to learn from! :) I have two children of my own. Both in College! I love to be a support to families who need occasional or part time help with busy schedules these days. This helps me as I continue to grow my health and wellness business and further my education in environmental and health science. I believe in supporting the talents and joys of each child! Mutual respect and healthy boundaries are essential in any interaction and fosters a soul to thrive!

“Julie was amazing with our 6 year old son, she kept him entertained, engaged, and away from screens. He had plenty of outdoor time and was exhausted at the end of the day. ”

"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!"
