Since the age of 12, I have naturally embraced the role of a caregiver. As a mother of six children, whose ages range from 7 to 16, I have firsthand experience in nurturing and guiding young minds. My involvement extends beyond my family; I volunteer in children's church services, where I care for infants and toddlers, ensuring they are engaged and structured during their time there. Professionally, I work as a juvenile corrections officer for the state of Ohio, interacting daily with youth from all over the state. This role has deepened my passion for helping young people navigate their challenges, and I find fulfillment in making a positive impact in their lives. I believe my experiences allow me to offer valuable support to children and families, and I would love to bring that dedication to your household. Additionally, I have a profound appreciation for the elder generation. Raised by my maternal grandmother, I cherish the lessons and wisdom she imparted. In her later years, I had the honor of being there for her, planning her final wishes and ensuring her comfort. This experience has reinforced my understanding of the value of companionship and care for our elders. I would be grateful for the opportunity to share my love and experience with both the younger and older generations in your family. Thank you for considering my application.

$15 per hour for 1 child

I am an older sister of 2 sisters and 5 brothers. I have taken care of them my whole life and am very good with kids. I volunteered at a daycare/ summer camp taking care of infants in the mornings and school age children in the afternoon once school let out. I graduated OSU 2 years ago and would love to help with homework. If you need someone to drop off or pickup I would be available since my full time job is work from home and flexible. I am also available to baby-sit overnight if really needed on weekdays and for sure on weekends. I do live with a partner and am willing to have them meet with parents as well. They are also a current OSU student in grad school for architecture.

"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!"
