Hello my name is Mayra Zamora I am a High School Graduate and a 3 year Community College attendee. I am pursuing a Sociology degree and hopefully transfer to San Francisco State in Spring 2019. I enjoy being outdoors and walking my dog. In my free time I take care of my 1 and 7 year old cousins. I enjoy painting, coloring, drawing, reading, and cleaning. I also help my mother clean houses in the city once in a while when out of school. I am open to walking dogs, taking care of children, and even doing some house cleaning. I am very good at maximizing my time and leaving my clients happy with my work. I am 18 years old with an enormous passion of taking care of kids and pets. I may not have 15- 20 years of experience in this field of babysitting, but I believe I am fit for the job due to coming from a background with hardworking siblings and being the only one open to take care of the kids. I have my own car, I am able to pick up kids from school and take them home, make them lunch. I can also cook, and am open to even helping out with homework.
