About Jaya

Experience: 1 yr

Hi! I'm Jaya, a senior at San Diego State University majoring in Psychology. I love working with kids and plan to build my future career around supporting children and adolescents. I have experience with children ages 2-16, including those with special needs. I worked as a full-time ABA Behavior Technician and in-home therapist, helping kids build communication, social, and daily living skills through structured, play-based activities. I'm also comfortable with meals, diapering, and homework. I enjoy getting to know each child's personality and creating a safe, positive environment. I have reliable transportation and am based in the 92109 area. I'm open to part-time to near full-time hours and am flexible depending on your needs. I'm unavailable on Thursdays for now but will have full availability throughout the week after early May. I'd love to support your family!

Jaya is an exceptional caregiver who looked after my two boys with the utmost care, treating them as if they were her own children. Her level of maturity is unmatched for her age, which was clearly evident in her daily interactions. She consistently used wonderful language and effectively helped the boys work through their feelings. Because she was always bubbly and positive, I saw an instant, noticeable change in their behavior. I completely trusted her with their safety, allowing her to drive them and take them around town. We are all deeply saddened that she is leaving to attend grad school, and the boys will miss her so much.
