“Christina has worked with our family since my son was just a baby; he’s almost 7 years old (I also have a 5 year old now). We first became acquainted because she was my colleague in higher education and I learned she also was a nanny/babysitter. During this time, I’ve had the pleasure of getting to know Christina better and seeing her nurture my children in such a positive way. I believe that she is well qualified and experienced to accept the challenge of any childcare position. When Christina first started, she watched my infant son so that my husband and I could go out on dates. 20 months later, our daughter was born and Christina soon began watching our two children. This meant her responsibilities increased to watching the two children alone, making meals for them, and taking them on short outings to the park, the swimming pool, the mall, etc. Christina is upbeat and positive but also able to set boundaries with the children. Whenever she cares for them they are very excited to see her. I have the utmost confidence in her judgment and maturity and have always felt comfortable leaving my children in her care. I recommend Christina without reservation.”
For the summer, I am an empty nester as my 4 own children are at Grandparents in Alaska. I have a degree in Elementary Education and Educational services. I like to get outdoors and explore the parks and beaches Tacoma has to offer, as well work on art projects. I have worked in all age classrooms and youth of all ages. Being a mom of four means being on your toes, and knowing each child is different. I have current CPR and first aid credentials and used to working with youth. I have been a girl scout leader the past 9 years and I love dogs.
I am a loving a compassionate person who loves helping individuals and their families in need of support . I have 15 plus years in customer service skills, and have a bachelors degree in social work. , I love working with both children and seniors as well as with their families. I’m flexible, easy going and am punctual. I have a good sense of humor and am a people person . I’m a very active person including exercise , walks, hiking, cooking and traveling. I look forward to working with your family.
My proudest accomplishment is raising my two sons into caring young adults. Second proudest is earning my degree in elementary education at 40 years old. I have always had a love for working with children and helping them grow and learn. I currently work as a substitute teacher for Tacoma Public Schools, so my schedule is flexible. When my younger son was a toddler, he joined me at my job as a daycare assistant, where I assisted caring for a small group of toddlers, as well as provided one on one care for a sweet baby from when he was three months old until he turned one. I have stayed in touch with their family and have enjoyed seeing the young man he has become. I also spend a lot of time with my 5 year old twin nieces, and we love dancing, reading, and going on nature walks. I have experience in creating engaging and educational activities for children of all ages. I am currently learning ASL through weekly online classes. I believe in open communication with both parents and children. I am always willing to go the extra mile to ensure that each child in my care feels loved, safe, supported, and valued. I am excited about the opportunity to bring my skills and experience to a new family as their nanny, and look forward to building a strong and positive relationship with both the children and their parents. As a mother myself, I understand that trusting another person with your child is not something to be taken lightly. If I am fortunate enough to be trusted to care for your most precious little humans, I will treat that trust as a true gift and strive to make each day with your children an enlightening and fun one!

"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!"
