Dania Corona
$25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Dania. I have several years of babysitting experience, starting at age 15 caring for my youngest sibling and later helping with younger cousins and family friends. Working with children has always come naturally to me, and I truly enjoy creating a safe, fun, and positive environment for them. I’m patient, organized, responsible, and dependable, and I always do my best to make both kids and parents feel comfortable and supported. I’m bilingual and speak both English and Spanish. I’m also happy to help with cooking, light cleaning, and keeping things organized around the house as needed. I enjoy building genuine connections with the families I work with and creating a caring, structured, and fun environment for children.

"We were incredibly grateful that Maya was able to help us out with a last-minute childcare emergency. She matched our 9-year-old's energy with arts & crafts, some quiet reading, and a walk around the neighborhood. We'd have Maya back in a heartbeat!"
