About Maya

Hi families! My name is Maya and I'm a childcare professional with a strong background in child development and psychology. I earned my undergraduate degree in Psychology, then spent a year working at a pediatric speech and occupational therapy clinic, supporting children with a wide range of developmental needs. For the past few years, I've been a preschool teacher in Chicago, where I've loved fostering curiosity, confidence, and social-emotional growth in young learners. I recently began my Master's program in Clinical Psychology and am now looking for a full-time nanny position that offers a more intimate, slower-paced environment where I can form close connections and provide individualized care. While I don't have a car, I am very comfortable using public transportation and am reliable and punctual getting around Chicago.
