Dinusha $22 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Dinusha. I’m offering child care and senior care. I love being a babysitter and have been watching newborn baby, infant, toddler and kids since 2019. My responsibilities have feeding, reading books, playing. I have been caring my own grandma, she is dementia patient I take care of her since 2015. And I’m comfortable with senior care also. I can cook drive to the appointments and go to grocery shopping with them and spending time with them (reading, singing, dancing) Thank you

"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!"

"We used Tania for a last minute emergency. She responded very quickly. My daughter seemed to enjoy herself. My son napped most of the time. I enjoyed how she kept me updated by text."
