Our Teachers

Hello! I am Mayra, the director and founder of Max and Lulu’s Daycare and Preschool. I first worked in Mexico in banking administration, but soon realized that it was not something that gave my life any happiness at all! My true passion is working with children, so I decided to study Early Childhood Education at San Jose City College. When I look at their happy faces and see how I can help them, that is truly what makes me happy! I have 17 years of experiencing in this field through raising my own children and working in different child care centers to care for infants, toddlers and preschool aged children.

I am a mother of two children, my daughter Chelsea who is 17 and my son Leonardo who is 14 years old. I have two degrees, my first in Business Administration, and the second in Early Childhood Education. My first language is Spanish and I am so proud to teach children in both English and Spanish in my program!

Trabaje en México en la administración de bancos dándome cuenta que esa no es mi vocación que realmente lo que le daba felicidad a mi vida es la interacción con los niños y decidí estudiar en san jose city college educación infantil porque eso es lo que realmente me apasiona cuando yo puedo ayudar a mirar sus caritas felizes por medios de my amor por los niños tengo 17 años de experiencia trabajando en diferentes centros de cuidado infantil en la posición de maestra infantil, maestra de dos , maestra de preschool.

Soy una madre de familia con dos hijos una niña Chelsea de 17 años y Leonardo de 14 años formamos una familia de solo 3 miembros en casa y de nacionalidad mexicana mi primera lengua es español con 2 carreras profesionales una en administración de empresas y otra en educación infante.
