Nice to meet you! After receiving my Bachelor's in Psychology with a specialization in Child Development, I moved back to the DC area to be closer to family. Between my undergrad work programs and my current job, I've been working in a teaching capacity with children for about 6 years now. Currently, I'm employed full time as a associate teacher at a DC preschool. This experience provides me with lots of benefits that I then get to share with my babysitting families! Some of these benefits include child CPR certification, easy meal times (I've supported all sorts of kids with different dietary and motor needs), comfort with managing siblings, and a willingness to embrace the toughest bedtime routines. I look forward to working with your family!

I am a postgraduate adult with over six years of professional experience as a babysitter, complemented by more than fifteen years of hands-on caregiving as an older sister to my younger sibling. From an early age, I developed a strong sense of responsibility, patience, and attentiveness, which has naturally carried into my work with children. My experience spans supporting children’s daily routines, fostering a safe and nurturing environment, and engaging them in age-appropriate activities that encourage learning, creativity, and confidence. I am passionate about spending time with children and supporting their growth in a positive, caring way. In my free time, I enjoy being outdoors and traveling, interests that help me stay active, curious, and adaptable—qualities I bring into my caregiving approach. I value meaningful connections, clear communication, and creating experiences where children feel supported, understood, and encouraged to explore the world around them.

"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!"
