Please allow me to introduce myself. My name is Donna and I have devoted my life to working with children, most specifically infants and toddlers but with school aged children as well. I am warm, creative, generous, fun loving and caring. I will care for your child(ren) and your family with love and respect. A bit about my background now. I began my career 30+ years ago as director in corporate child care centers. After leaving the corporate world I cared for an amazing family for 8 years and recently left because they out grew the need for a full time nanny. These children are now an extension of my family. I am currently with a family with 2 children ages 8 and almost 3 years old. I have been with them for over two years and they are amazing! The little one is going to attend full time preschool starting in September. They too are an extension of my family. Infant care is my specialty, I am looking for two to three full days starting in September. I look forward to meeting you.

Congratulations reader, you have found your nanny (if Donna is not already taken; she will not be available for long). Donna has cared for our 8 year old son and our almost 3 year old son for the past two and a half years. When we first found Donna, our intent was to hire a nanny for roughly 6 months - long enough to get through COVID while our little one was still an infant. Here we are 2.5 years later, and Donna is an irreplaceable member of our family. Donna has decades of experience in the childcare field, and it shines through in her warm and nurturing presence. She is incredibly patient and sets healthy boundaries (a must when you have two wild boys). She is a wealth of knowledge. When our youngest was ready to potty train, Donna showed up with the potty training books and know-how; she made the process so easy for us. Donna is creative and resourceful. She took our mundane, disorganized playroom and transformed it into a vibrant classroom, guiding me on toy organization and filling the walls with colorful works of art and hand painted masterpieces. From her Mary Poppins bag of activities to her fun holiday calendar (think pizza day, mismatched outfit day, etc) every day has been a new adventure for our kids. Donna has fostered imaginative and creative thinking in both of our boys. Sunny cakes for the last day of school, themed art shows, flower planting, snowmen, mothers/fathers day creations...trips to the library, science museum, petting zoo, countless playground visits (Donna is one of the only people I trust to drive my children)...these are just a few of the many cherished memories we have because of her. I cannot articulate how much love our family has for Donna. Her presence has had an exceptionally positive impact in our lives. We truly won the jackpot when we found her.
