Hello, I am Miss Nonette, I’ve worked with children from infants to school age (including children with special needs) for over twenty years. Before moving to Texas, I was a preschool teacher before switching to tutoring reading to early school-age children. I am Montessori certified, and I am First Aid/ CPR certified. I enjoy seeing children develop and flourish in whatever capacity stage. In addition, I have also worked for senior care and adults with special needs. I am allergic to cats and prefer no pets in the house. If you are looking for any of these services, such as date night, occasional childcare, senior care, or tutoring service, Please reach out to me by email at [removed] or call[removed] (It's always best to leave as detailed a message as possible, including the time and duration you need the service and your child's age.) I look forward to meeting you soon.

I have worked with children for 20 years as an educator in and out of the classroom. I have worked with families providing childcare for 10 years. I am patient, kind and nurturing. I’m interested in what the kids are interested in doing. This ranges from legos to drawing and anywhere in between. I have worked with children aged from infant to 12 years old. I’m CPR and first aid certified. I take pride in giving parents time off knowing their little ones are well cared for.

Tamara came through in a pinch; she was punctual, polite, and great with the kids!

"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!"
