My goal as a nanny is to take care of children, help them grown and watch them have fun!. I described my personality as outgoing, patience, responsible, warmth and creativity. I love going to the park with the kids, making crafts and i am very loving. I want to make a difference in the care of the children, so that as they grow up they remember a childhood full of fun and happiness; at the same time keeping the family calm.
I am a 32-year-old Colombian woman with 5 years of experience as an occupational therapist, and over 6 years of experience caring for children in various capacities since arriving in the United States in 2017, including Aupair experience. I worked hands-on with children and built adaptive skills, critical thinking, and a problem-solving orientation to help children thrive and gain independence. I take a detail-oriented, charismatic, and respectful approach to my work. I operate with care, compassion, and kindness. I have been around the same American families over the years, I aim to bring my patient, nurturing, and engaging care to another family in my spare time. I aim to promote the learning and growth of children through enjoyable activities that align with a family’s needs and preferences. Building an environment of trust and affection is my top priority. Please feel free to reach out to discuss any specific questions.
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!"
Hillary S., parent
"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."
