Hi i'm Amaya. I have several years of experience as a nanny for children from newborn through school age. I currently work as a Registered Behavior Technician, providing one-on-one ABA therapy for children with autism. Working as an RBT has strengthened my skills in building trusting relationships, encouraging independence, supporting emotional regulation, and creating engaging, individualized learning experiences. I'm passionate about helping children learn, grow, and feel confident in a safe, nurturing, and structured environment. I enjoy crafts, outdoor play, reading, homework help, and other activities that keep kids engaged while having fun. I'm dependable, patient, and compassionate, with experience maintaining routines, preparing meals, providing transportation, and communicating openly with families. I'd love to become a trusted, reliable part of your family's support system.
Amaya was our nanny for a year while my husband and I were living in Iowa City! First for our daughter between ages ~1.5 and 2.5, and then our son for the first few months of life! Amaya is truly a gem; 1000% trustworthy, reliable, punctual, very caring, teaches skills, helped keep us organized and tidy, and anyone would be so lucky to have her!!
