Meet Maya

I am a calm-natured, compassionate, and responsive child-led caregiver. I have years of experience as a caregiver for children and the elderly. I spend ample time in nature, and I believe it’s a great outlet for children to explore. Nature provides many opportunities for discovery, creativity, and stress reduction! I’m experienced and comfortable with providing developmentally appropriate opportunities for play and learning along with establishing firm and loving boundaries. My history as a patient care technician and my experience in child care have prepared me for a wide range of responsibilities. I have experience caring for individuals with a variety of disabilities, dietary restrictions, and accommodation needs. This includes neurodivergent children, children with physical disabilities, and learning disabilities. I am comfortable with medication management, behavior plans, mobility aids, and incontinence care.
