A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Dana and I am a 23 year old college student. I try to keep the most positive environment for children. I love staying active and I’m sure your children do too! Working as a swim teacher while in high school really helped me decide my career path. I am currently enrolled at Purdue Global for Speech Pathology. I plan on working with children for my career. The past couple of years I have worked in the restaurant industry, and I am ready to get back into nannying. Possibly both depending on the schedules of the parents. I am on my path to renew my CPR certification. I was previously CPR and AED certified.

"Dana babysat for our family many times over the last few years. She always showed up with a smile on her face and a genuine happy greeting for my kids. She loved to play games and keep them busy. She was always very honest and would tell me right away if there were any injuries, etc. while I was out. I always felt good about having her at our house and I give my recommendation. We really loved having her!"

I was a swim teacher ages 4 months - 13 years for 3 and 1/2 years. I also volunteered as a preteen with my mother at Suncrest Christian Church in St. John. Throughout my teenage years and now I have also done babysit jobs in between my regular job

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

The most important part about being a nanny...

Keeping kids engaged. Nannying is not just watching your children. It is about keeping children interested, having them use their minds and creativity.

I use to teach special needs children at Aqua-Tots.
One was a little 9 year old girl who had cerebral palsy. Another child was partially deaf. I have also taught children with Autism.
