A little bit about me

Hi, I’m Dana. I’ve been a nanny for over 17 years and have enjoyed every second of it. I love spending as much time as I can outside and prefer working with a family that values the outdoors (minimal to no screen time) and everything it has to offer. I’m culinary trained and love teaching kids about healthy eating, and would love to teach your kiddo baking as well.
I am CPR/First Aid certified, working on my NCS certification, and an advocate for car seat safety and sleep training (I’m hoping to become certified in both areas soon as well). I strongly believe in staying up to date with the latest studies on all aspects of child care. Complacency and thinking you know everything in the child care industry is doing the industry a huge disservice.

A little bit about me

Hello, my name is Peggy. I have been a fun, active experienced nanny for over 10 years. I am originally from greece I came here when I was about 10 years old. My very first job was at day care near my high school and I absolutely loved it! Teaching and helping children grow through every stage of their youth life and showing them what this wonderful world has to offer. But children will be children it’s important for us adults to teach them that fun is fun but the most important thing is they have to respect other as well as each other.

A little bit about me

Hello, my name is Narlee.

I am a sophomore at UMB. I worked as a preschool teacher during my high school years and graduated with my certificate in early childhood. I chose that profession because I truly believe that children are the future and their childhood is the foundation for adulthood; therefore, they should have many good people around them—their parents, teachers, siblings, other family members, and good neighbors and friends—from whom they can learn and adopt morals and values.

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Sainmilia, and I’m a dedicated 24-year-old childcare professional with years of hands-on experience caring for children and supporting families.
I have a strong background in childcare, senior care, and cooking. From 2020 to 2024, I worked as a Child Care Provider in Haiti, supervising children in a safe and nurturing environment, helping with homework, and preparing healthy meals.
In addition to childcare, I have professional experience in senior home care and hold a Home Health Aide Certification. This training has given me excellent skills in patience, communication, and attentive care qualities I bring to all families I work with.
I’m available for live-in nanny positions and can also assist with housekeeping and meal preparation. Although I don’t have a car, I am reliable, flexible, and ready to adapt to your family’s needs. I’m seeking a full-time but open to part time positions and can start as soon as possible!
