A little bit about me

Hello, my name is Naya Santana. I'm from the Dominican Republic. I will be nineteen years old and 3 years old living in this country. I graduated from high school and I am currently studying at the university. I have experience taking care of a one-year-old girl and also taking care of children from 5 and 7 years old until the age of 12. I am very good at taking care of the children. My family says that I have "blood" for that, since children always love me and I know how to calm them down when they have a crisis.

A little bit about me

I’ve always adored kids and spent my childhood taking care of my younger cousins, nieces and nephews. I worked at a daycare with children of all ages for a year and I loved my time there. It was the only job I’ve had were I spend all day smiling and laughing, I learned so much through that experience and I found it extremely rewarding. I’m a very positive, creative and energetic person. I love to do arts and crafts, swim, dance, etc. I hope I can be a perfect match for your family.

A little bit about me

My name is Dahlia Cianflone. I have just finished my senior year of high school and am looking to move to to pursue a career in childcare.

I am seeking a live-in employment opportunity. I have a very strong background and experience in childcare from personally helping raise my nephew for the past 9 years. Also, my high school had an intensive program which allowed me to be trained in First Aid, CPR, teaching preschool students for 6 months, and working very closely with newborns and infants for the past 2 full years.

I have several direct references from the administrators who run the program which you can reach out to at any time.


While still in school I have held a job working at the restaurant in a senior living facility for the past year where I prepare food and drinks, engage and take orders with the residents, serve them, and maintain clean facilities.

Recent reference

"Dahlia was my student while enrolled at Danbury High School. She was taking my course “Birth through Two” where she worked intensively to simulate caring for newborns up to toddlers. She was further promoted to the Child Development and Early Childhood Workshop classes where she worked directly with infants and toddlers in a true educational and nursery setting. Dahlia was an exemplary student who always took initiative and encouraged everyone to always be in it for the kids. I would trust her with children of any age, as her experience in and outside of the classroom make her an exceptional candidate to be a nanny."
