  About Me
 

Hello my name is Maya. I am 26 years old and have recently graduated from Brooklyn College with my Bachelor’s degree as a Double Major in Psychology and Childhood Special Education. I am looking for a full time position and I know working with your child(ren) would be a great fit for my skills. I am compassionate about children’s needs and well being as well as punctual and responsible. I love children and have had a great deal of experience with newborns to 12 yrs old, from babysitting family members’ children to working as the resident babysitter at New York Sports Club-Cobble Hill for several years. Their kids loved me and it was a pleasure to care for them. In addition, during my time at Brooklyn College I worked as a student teacher/student aid doing hours at P. S. 20, P. S. 109, Inner Force Tots as well as private tutoring and babysitting for outside clients.

I love love love reading and think that it can bring so much to children. It increases their reading comprehension and vocabulary. I also enjoy going out to eat out trying new cuisines. I dislike failing but if I do I find a way to improve so it does not happen again.

S. 109, Inner Force Tots as well as private tutoring and babysitting for outside clients. I have worked with families with mostly 2 kids. So I am more than capable of multitasking and getting the job done.
