Experience: 4 yrs
As a natural caregiver, I've dedicated the past four years of my life to nurturing the growth and development of young minds. My passion for childcare stems from my belief in the immense potential children possess and my desire to make a positive impact on their formative years. My approach to childcare is rooted in patience, creativity, and a genuine love for children. I strive to create a safe, stimulating, and nurturing environment where kids can thrive and explore their interests. Open and consistent communication with parents is essential to me, and I ensure they are regularly updated about their child's day and any matters that arise. I believe in fostering a balance between structure and flexibility, following the parents' lead in enforcing household rules while also encouraging children's independence and self-expression. My experience spans various age groups, from toddlers to preteens, and I'm comfortable caring for up to two children at a time.
Maya is so lovely! Shes been babysitting our now 6 month old a few afternoons each week for the past 2 months. We’ve felt 100% comfortable leaving our baby with her from the start, which made going back to work a lot easier! She is kind, patient, a great communicator, and takes great care of our little one.
