A little bit about me
I have an innate gift with children, which I further developed by working 2 years at a foster care child placing agency.
More specifically, I worked in the treatment home for children considered "Highly challenging" due to a variety of physical, mental, developmental, and behavioral issues.
In order to provide an environment conducive for their healing and progression, I worked with a treatment team of professionals ranging from different therapists, psychologists, and case managers, to develop and implement strategies tailored to each child's unique challenges and limitations.
Through this experience, I have acquired an abundance of skills and resources which has helped me connect with children in a meaningful way that makes them want to strive to be their best selves.
My mission is to be the best role model possible. Sometimes all it takes is 1 interaction to change the trajectory of someone's life. I strive to ensure all of my interactions leave a positive impression.

A little bit about me
Hi my name is Lidia, I have been working with kids here in the U.S. for about 30 years now and it’s my life’s passion! From as young as a newborn to as old as 12, I’ve been able to establish meaningful relationships with kids of all ages and get joy in seeing them grow and develop alongside their families. I’m an empty-nester as my only son has gone off to college and work so I’m flexible with almost any work schedule.

A little bit about me
Hi! My name is Maya, and I'm an Early Childhood Education major at ACC. I've known from a young age that I had a passion for teaching, and as I got older and gained more experience working with children, I fell in love with classroom environments and watching the little ones grow up. Not only would working for you as a nanny provide me with the experience I need to do my best as a teacher in the future, it would also give me field work hours for my degree. On top of that, I love what I do. I've always had a knack for working with kids, and I hope you'll give me the chance to prove it! :)

Recent reference
"I hired Maya many times I the past year and I can say with 100% confidence that it was one of the best decisions I've made when it comes to childcare. I'm a single mom with two boys, a 5 year old and an 8 year old. Anyone with sons or brothers knows how hard it can be to have the get along with each other sometimes. Maya pulled them together like glue with no visible effort. She came in for the first time with dinosaur coloring books and a great attitude and since then my boys have been asking at least twice a month when Maya can come over to play Legos. She's great for me as a parent and she's great for the kids. She truly loves her job and is passionate about creating a safe and fun environment for the kids. If you're, on the fence about hiring her, take my word for it!"

A little bit about me
My name is Tianna and I am 21 year old college student online at Texas Tech. While my major is nothing related to working with children, I would love nothing more than to spend my time not only working to save money but enjoying it while I do. I've always been great with kids and if you consider the fact I practically raised my brother who's 8 years younger than me, I've been babysitting and working with kids for a while. I'd love nothing more than to get to know and take care of your kids!! I know how to cook, love cleaning, do arts and crafts and take care of pups if necessary! I am allergic to specific breeds as well as cats though. I also work from home part time for Apple 5-9pm Tu and Th and 11-3pm on Wed. My equipment can be moved as long as I have access to an Ethernet wall plug.
