A little bit about me
I’m a patient, dependable, and caring person who enjoys creating fun, age-appropriate activities while also keeping children on consistent routines. I love reading, playing, doing arts and crafts, getting outside, and finding simple ways to make everyday activities fun and engaging for children.
My experience as a lead teacher has taught me how important it is to be attentive to children’s individual needs, communicate with families, maintain a safe and organized environment, and create a day that is both structured and enjoyable.
I would love the opportunity to bring my childcare experience into a family’s home and provide their child with the same patience, attention, and care I’ve given the children I’ve worked with throughout my career.

A little bit about me
My name is Danielle Blasco and I’m currently going into my senior year at Lipscomb University, in Nashville Tennessee. I absolutely adore kids and I have a lot of experience with them. I worked as a camp counselor last summer and I also have had multiple nanny jobs with kids of all ages. I also have experience with newborns and infants as I worked at KinderCare a couple summers ago five days a week. I’m preferably looking for a regular nanny job this summer but I’m open to babysitting jobs here and there as well. :)
