Hello! My name is Mayzin, and I’m currently applying to medical school. With plenty of free time on my hands, I’m excited to help families with their childcare needs. During my time at UC Berkeley, I gained valuable babysitting experience with families in a variety of situations—whether as part of a semi-long-term arrangement or providing occasional date-night coverage for parents. In my free time, I enjoy playing soccer and tennis, exploring my artistic side through piano, and even singing along (though I’ll let the kids decide how good I am at it!). I’d love to share these experiences with your children while doing my best to make your day a little easier. I’m happy to help with tutoring, homework, or even light household tasks.

Hi! I am a part-time graduate student working as a nanny/babysitter on the side. I have over 10 years of experience working with children in a variety of settings. Please feel free to read through my experiences and let me know if you have any questions. I can provide a recent background check and references upon request. And good luck in your childcare search! Babysitting experience: I have taken care of children ages 2 months to 14 years, up to 4 children at a time. I am comfortable with overnights after getting to know a family first. Nanny experience: I have 2.5 years total experience working as a full time nanny. I spent one year in Chicago splitting my time between two families with complimentary schedules. The first had children ages 1.5 yrs and 4 yrs. The second had children ages 2, 6, and 9. I started nannying in Sacramento with a series of temporary/short-term jobs totalling 6 months of experience. Most of these families had infants or toddlers and were waiting for a spot at a daycare, or I was filling in while their regular nanny went on maternity leave or an extended vacation. Since summer 2024, I have been working for one family with a 5 year old. I am comfortable driving children to and from school or activities, providing tutoring/homework help, and completing housework while nannying. Experience with developmental differences: I consider myself highly qualified to work with children who are neurodivergent, developmentally delayed, or living with specific medical conditions that affect their childcare needs. I studied applied developmental psychology in college. Immediately after graduation, I worked for one year as an Early Interventionist-Infant Specialist with Optima Family Services in Los Angeles. In this role I provided in-home developmental therapy to young children with a variety of medical and behavioral diagnoses. More recently I spent nearly three years as a Clinical Research Coordinator at UC Davis for a study about autism and related developmental conditions in 8-22 year olds. Many of the families that I have babysat/nannied for have also had a neurodivergent child. The 5 year old I've been taking care of this past year has ASD. Additional relevant experience: I worked two summers between colleges semesters as a childcare assistant at a home daycare (ages 1 month to 5 years) and held a college internship at the UCLA Infant Development Program, a mixed ability early education classroom (ages 1 month to 3 years.)
