About Maxine

Hello! My name is Maxine, but many know me as Aunty Dilly. I recently moved to Los Angeles from Kingston, Jamaica, where I spent my life nurturing children, including my own, who is now a successful adult. I have a natural connection with kids and create a warm, structured environment where they feel safe, respected, and encouraged to grow. As a former business owner and trained seamstress, I value discipline but also embrace fun, laughter, and learning. I've helped raise many of my nieces and nephews and have always been the go-to caregiver for family and friends. Cooking is my passion, and I take pride in preparing healthy, delicious meals that children love. I believe in fostering good nutrition for growing minds and bodies. I am patient, empathetic, and adaptable to different parenting styles, always leading with kindness. I would love the opportunity to care for your little ones as if they were my own. I look forward to meeting your family soon!
