Meet Maya
- Comfortable with pets
I began babysitting at 14 years old for kids of all ages and my previous experience makes me a qualified sitter for you and your family! I am fully vaccinated with boosters and am the youngest of 3. I never had a little brother or sister of my own which drives my passion for babysitting. I love to play and interact with children along with watching them develop. My most recent position was during the COVID pandemic in an immune-compromised household with 2 children both under the age of 7. I also have experience working with children with special needs and adoptees. Previously I worked as a child care supervisor at my old elementary after-school program, where I helped with academic enrichment along with enforcing safety measuring during the height of the pandemic for more than 35 children. I also worked as a lifeguard and was then promoted to manager Read more of my local pool and have previous CPR and First Aid certifications. I have a Bachelor of Science from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign and completed numerous classes on child development.
