About Maya

Experience: 10 yrs

I am an ambitious, caring, and determined, passionate about helping children and families. I enjoy creating positive, supportive environments where children feel safe, respected, and encouraged to grow. Working with children allows me to make a meaningful impact, foster creativity, and help shape future generations. My experience caring for children began in my early teens, when family members trusted me to supervise and support their children during gatherings and events. As an older sister, I have developed patience, responsibility, and strong communication skills. I connect easily with children, understand their emotions, and build positive relationships with both children and parents. In my free time, I enjoy creative activities such as painting, knitting, crocheting, sewing, embroidery, baking, cooking, and reading. My key strengths include patience, behavior management, communication, and creating structured, engaging environments that support children's development and life.
