"Maya was fantastic with our 1-year-old and 3-year-old—fun, caring, and creative. She did crafts with them, enjoyed music and play, and even made delicious muffins together with the kids. She always found other fun and engaging activities to keep them happy. She also helped keep their play areas clean and organized, was always on time, and communicated her schedule in advance. We truly appreciated everything she did"

More About Me

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

My most recent job was as a private preschool teacher and nanny for one child, I developed appropriate curriculum designed and tailored to my charge. I was with them from 9months - 3yrs. At the same time I provided part time care on non-scheduled hours to three different families in my area with ages 3months-9yrs. All three family’s had at least two children, the siblings, age differences varying from one year to seven years apart in age.

Previously I was a part-time nanny for one family before I joined AmeriCorps where I worked with differently, abled youth, and adults with various non profits during my contract. Prior to that I worked with summer day camps, including the City of Reno and OCC’s School of Sailing. I also volunteered a second and third grade combo class at an elementary school until the COVID shutdown.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I enjoy doing crafts, puzzles, most outdoor activities (such as hiking, park play, swimming, sailing, stretching, walking etc.) cooking and baking. Many of the children I have worked with I’ve taught how to safely make at least two baked goods with recipes I tailor to their ability. I believe in the power of learning through play and encouraging creative development.
