A little bit about me

Hi!
My name is Maya, I value listening, kindness, empathy, and being silly. In my free time I study plant medicine, guitar, and Bahasa Indonesia and Balinese.

In college I worked at my school's daycare looking after kids mainly 6 months to 5 years in age.
Since then I've babysat for various neighbors. At my old house, I would babysit some neighbors in the evenings, who were 3, 5, and 7 years old. We all love playing together outside and making up games.
Most currently I babysit my 8 year old neighbor. I've known them for over a year now. We love to play outside, harvest fruit, and venture to the library.

I believe growing up with five siblings has made me a good listener and a compassionate mediator. I help my sister with her 3 year old and feel so lucky to be present for his different developmental stages.
I love being with kids because they are learning about themselves and the world for the first time and I think that is so very special.

A little bit about me

I have been a nanny for nearly 14 years and have a background in early childhood education. I embrace supporting your child's own curiosity and creativity to learn, and emphasize communicating their needs and autonomy in a constructive manner as well as respecting the needs and autonomy of those around them. Whether you're a family or two or ten my goal is to integrate seamlessly into your own parenting plan for your kiddos; I am very open minded to new and familiar parenting styles but am also more than willing to offer advice when asked. I have experience with many different family dynamics and with all ages from newborn to preteen.
