Hi My name is Lexie and I’m currently studying psychology because I hope to work with children in the future. I offer child care, senior care, pet care, and basic household help. I’ve worked with kids of all ages and love creating a calm, fun, and supportive environment. I’ve helped with homework, bedtime routines, meals, play activities, and keeping kids engaged in safe, positive ways. I also have experience caring for seniors, including helping with daily tasks, companionship, light cleaning, and making sure they feel comfortable and supported. I’m great with pets as well and can handle feeding, walks, playtime, and general care. I’m dependable, patient, and bring a warm, understanding personality to every home I step into.

"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!"
Hillary S., parent
