About Dana

Experience: 5 yrs

I adore children of all ages&ideally looking for a family that I can grow and stay with for several years. Being a nanny is my career& I will be doing this for the next 20 years. I think of myself as a child's protector&prioritize their safety. I make sure to take really good care of their physical needs. I see my role as a positive and empathetic caregiver who is here to support&help them learn&thrive. I am patient, proactive, reliable,&have common sense. I am mindful of the energy that I bring into your children's lives&home. I am looking for a family that is trustworthy&believes in reciprocal respect&great communication. I can mirror specifics of your child care routine, or I can independently make decisions on my own. I like to have fun&be active with kids. I have a creative writing&improv background(what I do in my free time)I am a non-smoker, rarely drink alcohol, have a valid DL&excellent driving record. I do not own a car. Kids are our future&they all deserve positive humans i

I could go on forever, but we truly cannot say enough positive things about Dana. She has been such a gift to our family, and if we weren’t moving out of the city, we would never dream of letting her go. As a former nanny myself, I had very high standards when we began our search, and Dana has exceeded every one of them. She is loving, dependable, understanding, patient, fun, and trustworthy. Most importantly, our daughter absolutely adores her and we have always felt total peace of mind knowing she was in such capable and caring hands. She made returning to work after maternity leave the easiest transition, which was such a blessing. Any family who hires Dana will be incredibly lucky to have her. She will bring warmth, laughter, professionalism, and genuine love into your child’s life, and you all will be better off because of her.
