Hello!! I’m Chiamaka but you can call me Kaima. I’m currently a nursing student looking towards specializing in anesthesiology. My hobbies are dancing, singing, reading, and taking solitary walks. My experience in terms of babysitting started with family. I helped my Aunt in raising my cousins, taking care of them since their birth till about age 5/7 when I moved out. The fun part of being with them was catering for them, helping with assignments,playing with them and also expanding my own personal knowledge when it comes to kids because undoubtedly, they are wonderful but delicate. With this knowledge, I’m willing to extend this care to you and your kids. I’m looking forward to working with you and getting to bond with your baby/babies :)

"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!"
