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.

Hello families my name is Karin. I am CPR/first aid certified. I have A.A.S. Educational Assistant degree from Ridgewater College. I worked for nearly 20 years at a Montessori school with preschool and toddler age children. For primarily 15 of those years I was the assistant toddler teacher and the last about 5 years I was the school closet. I also worked at 2 other child care centers in the preschool classrooms. I also worked part-time and subbed at an in-home daycare. My sister and I ran the daycare, took care of their cat while they were on a vacation. I have also in the past volunteered at my church's VBS and Sunday school programs. I love getting to know children on an individual level. All children are unique.
