Maia L.
- 16 years paid experience

Hello! My name is Maia and I am a 30-year-old stay-at-home mother to a beautiful one-year-old baby girl. Ever since I was a child, I knew that I was meant to be a mother. My experience with children starts at age 7 when my little sister was born. I took on the role of a second mother to her, tending to her needs by changing diapers, giving her baths, feeding her, and putting her to bed. All together I have 6 younger siblings. In addition to my familial experiences, I also have babysitting and daycare experience with infants, toddlers and school-age children. My intuitive, nurturing and empathetic nature have always been at the core of who I am, guiding my interactions with children. Furthermore, I am very attentive, patient and kind. I love finding educational, screen-free activities to do, along with getting some outside time when the weather permits it. I am comfortable doing any cleaning, cooking, helping with homework, house managing, etc. I am also comfortable around all pets and will help take care of them, as well. References are available! I have experience with watching several children at once. I also have experience with autistic children in a professional setting. Communication and organization is key with me.

Hi, I'm Kara — a highly experienced caregiver, nurse, nutritionist, mother of three, and lifelong nurturer with a passion for helping families thrive. I hold a Bachelor of Science in Nursing and a degree in Dietetics (Food Science and Human Nutrition). I’ve worked as a school nurse, public health nurse, hospital nurse, and case manager. I’ve also worked as an independent nutritionist, helping many mothers and fathers discover practical, nourishing ways to feed their families with confidence. Before raising my own children, I was a dedicated nanny for many years. I bring a unique combination of warmth, structure, creativity, and energy into every home. I was raised on a farm in Iowa, started babysitting early, and still have a close relationship with the family I nannied for growing up. My life is rooted in service, faith, and joyful homemaking — I love preparing homemade, nutritious meals and also enjoy gourmet cooking. Managing a home, gardening, and creating a peaceful, well-run household are things I truly enjoy. I also run an apothecary business, handcrafting herbal products for natural health and wellness. I’m highly active and in very good shape — certified in Pilates and passionate about yoga, hiking, biking, and outdoor adventures. I love engaging kids in age-appropriate activities, whether that’s crafts and science experiments with younger ones or outdoor excursions, baking, art projects, or life-skills support with tweens and teens. I enjoy connecting with older children through meaningful conversation, encouragement, and helping them build independence and confidence. I understand that every child has a unique personality — from energetic explorers to quiet thinkers — and I’m flexible in meeting them where they are. While I’m not an expert in electronics or gaming, I’m happy to learn what they enjoy or provide gentle structure around healthy boundaries and screen time when needed. Whether we’re planning a nature outing, talking through a tough day, or just making a great meal together, I bring creativity, enthusiasm, and patience into everything I do. If you're looking for someone who can care deeply, move quickly, manage your household, and nurture your children’s minds and hearts — I’d love to support your family.

Hii my name is Maria, I've been working with children for about two years, primarily caring for toddlers through older kids. My experience has included everything from engaging little ones in play and helping with routines, to planning fun activities for older children. Growing up with a younger sibling helped me get a sense of responsibility and patience early on, and it's a big part of what sparked my interest in childcare. I love getting creative with kids whether it's making crafts, doing simple science experiments, or putting together themed activity days. I'm also happy to take children out for a change of scenery, whether that's to a local park, museum, or an after-school activity. I'm comfortable driving and enjoy helping kids explore the world around them in fun and safe ways.

I did volunteer work in the church. For 3 years I took care of children of all ages at church. Babies from 6 months to 1 year, and children from 2 to 10 years. With the babies, I helped take care of them by giving them bottles, changing their diapers and putting them to sleep. When they were awake, they played games to stimulate the baby's skills, such as painting, playing Legos or watching cartoons on TV. With the older children I did activities that also stimulate their development, such as drawing and painting, playful games, I gave them snacks and was always there to give them all the support they needed, and it was really cool, because at the same time I taught them, I also learned from them. to be patient and empathetic and to understand their needs.

Hi, I'm Kelley and I love kids! I'm twenty one and I have almost ten years of experience in childcare. I am CPR, first aid and pca certified. I babysit for families, help in my church nursery, and I've done childcare for my bible study, worked at an after school childcare center, have done some pca work, and have held several nanny jobs. I have a passion for kids, and I'm happiest when I'm with them. I plan on working with kids as a career choice. Children are amazing, and I just love spending time with them. I enjoy playing games with them, reading to them, playing pretend, playing outside and doing outdoor activities and educational toys/games! I think they are so cute and fun! I'm responsible, mature and reliable, but also love to have fun with them! In my free time I like to babysit, be outside, go shopping and hang out with friends.

I'm looking for more experience with children as I want to specialize in pediatrics once I obtain my RN. I've worked with kids aged 1-14 for 6 months as a swim instructor as well as a few months at a local urgent care that saw children often. Another job I had was working as a direct support professional for a young adult with autism, providing meal preparation, laundry, transportation, and companionship. I've also worked in memory care units as well as assisted living for over a year now. This gives me experience in cares, both emotionally and ADL's. I've also worked with a young adult with autism. For my education I graduated high school spring of 2024, taking college courses during to start early in my nursing career. I've now finished my first year of college and am on track to graduating with my nursing degree in 2027. There's plenty more stated in my resume!
