I am a dedicated, intentional, fun and gentle personality with a deep love for children and a passion in serving and caring for others. In my blended family of four siblings , I am the eldest of three so my caregiving familiarity spans almost my entire life. Professionally, I have 4 years experience caring for little to medium humans from ages 1-16 in various roles like an after school teacher and summer camp counselor. From homework help to fun engaging activities to genuine joy in care, I'm there! Ready and eager to serve. I am also available for house and pet-sitting!
Hi I'm Maggie! I'm new to NYC but have nannied on and off throughout the last 8 years. My experience ranges from infants <6 months old to kids approaching teenage years. A little about me: I love to be outdoors, and love your go-to babysitter for fun, safe, and reliable care! I love helping families by creating a warm and engaging environment for their little ones. Whether it's reading stories, playing games, or outdoor adventures, I’m all about making sure kids are entertained while staying safe and happy. I’m CPR certified, and I'm comfortable with multiple children, pets, etc. I take pride in being punctual, responsible, and communicative. Parents love knowing that their children are in good hands, and I always make sure to keep the lines of communication open! I can provide a variety of services, from casual babysitting to regular weekly hours, and I’m also open to light housekeeping or meal prep if needed. Feel free to reach out if you'd like to discuss how I can help your family!
Hello! I’m an Art History major at the University of Virginia and currently a visiting student at NYU. I have several years of experience babysitting for family, friends, and younger cousins, as well as volunteering as a tutor for kids from pre-K through middle school. I love working with children and always aim to create a safe, fun, and engaging environment for them. I’m also a big animal lover and have experience caring for both dogs and cats. Last summer, I worked as a gallery assistant in South Carolina, where I managed the space independently—cleaning, organizing, and helping visitors. That role really taught me responsibility, reliability, and how to stay calm under pressure—qualities I bring to babysitting as well! I am correctly in New York from May 2025 - August 2025 I’d love the opportunity to support your family and get to know your little ones!

"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!"
