A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Maya Ortiz. I’m 17 years old, a communicator, and a student at Gateway Christian Academy. I’ve been babysitting for 3 years, working with kids ages 5 to 13, and I truly enjoy creating a fun, safe, and positive environment for the children I care for. In my free time, I love music and singing, crocheting, watching movies, and spending time in the kitchen cooking and baking. I enjoy being creative and bringing that into my babysitting—whether it’s making crafts, singing songs, or baking something simple with the kids.
I’m a strong communicator, very dependable, and able to adapt well to new environments and different family routines. I do my best to be someone children feel comfortable with and someone parents can trust. I’m excited to work with families who value kindness, patience, and a Christ-centered approach to care.

More About Me

Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...

Over the past 3 years, I have provided consistent and dependable childcare for children ages 5 to 13. My responsibilities have included supervising playtime, helping with homework, preparing meals and snacks, maintaining bedtime routines, and planning fun, age-appropriate activities. I’ve cared for children both in short-term and long-term roles, including after-school care and full-day summer babysitting. Through this experience, I’ve developed strong communication skills, patience, and the ability to adapt to different family dynamics and routines. I prioritize safety, respect, and creating a positive environment where children feel loved and supported.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

Indoor activities like movies, baking, cooking, and art. Outdoor activities such as parks etc..
Singing and dancing.

The most important part about being a nanny...

The most important part of being a babysitter is creating a safe and trustworthy environment where children feel cared for, respected, and comfortable. It's not just about watching them—it’s about being present, dependable, and someone they can look up to. Children need to feel secure both physically and emotionally, and I believe showing kindness, patience, and understanding is key. As a babysitter, it's also important to communicate well with parents, follow their routines, and be adaptable to each child’s needs. Whether it’s helping with homework, playing games, or simply listening, being fully engaged and supportive makes all the difference
