A little bit about me

! I’m Dani and I’m excited to help care for your little ones! I have 4 years of experience working with children of all ages, and I’m passionate about creating a fun, safe, and nurturing environment. Whether it’s assisting with homework, organizing creative activities, or simply providing a listening ear, I’m dedicated to ensuring your child feels cared for and supported. I always strive to communicate openly with parents to ensure peace of mind. I look forward to becoming a trusted caregiver for your family!

I enjoy working with kids because you find joy in their energy, curiosity, and unique perspectives. Children often bring a sense of playfulness and creativity to everyday moments, which can be fulfilling. I also feel a sense of purpose in guiding and nurturing their growth, helping them learn new things, and being a positive influence in their lives. Additionally, the connections you build with kids can be deeply rewarding, as they often show genuine affection and trust.

Recent reference

"Shurla has been with us since our daughter was five months old. It was nerve-wracking to let anyone else take care of her after doing it on our own during COVID, but Shurla knew exactly what she was doing. From tummy time to starting solids to sleep training to potty training, she was our guide and support system; Josephine sailed past her milestones thanks to her. My friends still call me to get Shurla's advice when they have issues with their own kids (or nannies!). As things opened up, Shurla helped us build a whole new network in our neighborhood. Whether she was connecting Jo to her first group of friends by hosting arts and crafts and music days, composing legendary goodie bags for all Jo's birthday parties, or getting to know the regulars at the playground, she's the reason that our COVID baby is comfortable with any and everyone. She's been a friend and a part of our family for the last three years and we're devastated to be moving away from her!"
