About Maxine

Experience: 7 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

I've devoted the past 7 years to caring for children because I'm passionate about helping them grow, develop, and learn. I've worked with autistic children (specifically in ABA) for the past 6 years. I'm calm, patient, warm, and I love playing board games and puzzles with children. I also enjoy using educational games as a tool to promote learning. I am very comfortable enforcing household rules, and I follow the parents' preferred communication method to discuss their child's day or any issues. My early child development coursework, CPR training, and First Aid training help me ensure a safe and nurturing environment. I am also willing to help with light housekeeping and crafts. I have a car and am comfortable with pets. I am dedicated to supporting families and providing a reliable childcare option for them. I hope to hear from you soon.
