Booked by 2 families in Medina, WA

Hi there, my name is Nishadi! I am a true and native SoCal girl who found the beautiful PNW about 9 years ago. I love catching sunsets, hiking, and a good puzzle when it’s raining. I am currently pursuing a degree in Interior Design and planning my wedding for October 2026! My goal is to make the parents’ lives happier and easier as I care for their children by keeping them safe and entertained. I’ve been a nanny ever since moving here and have loved all of the families I’ve cared for and are still with them. I value a good fit with a family and being a part of the family as I get to know you. Looking forward to a fun opportunity with your children!

“She’s very neat, organized, on time, caring, affectionate, sweet and punctual. She arrived on time. Understood all the instructions. Came exactly on time even though it was last minute. Left the house an baby extremely clean. My daughter was really happy as well. Very impressed and will be hiring her again!!”

"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!"
