Hello! My name is Alana, and I'm a recent Temple University graduate! I have a degree in Theater with a concentration in Acting. I am new to the Danbury area, and am hoping to explore theater and film audition opportunities in NYC. I would describe myself as creative, gentle, reliable, and a bit whimsical ! My childcare experience began in middle school, when I began babysitting for my grandparents' neighbors' children. From there, I worked as a summer day camp counselor. I planned activities for students ages 5-12 from our community. During the summer after my senior year of high school, I nannied full time for a family in my neighborhood before leaving for college. I enjoy working with children because I love fostering a fun, creative atmosphere, much like what I do in my acting career. I am happy to provide services such as running errands, tutoring/homework, planning fun activities for children, pet care, or transportation. I look forward to meeting you!
Alana joined our family in November and was such a joy to us from the very beginning. She brought warmth, patience and steady energy into our home every single day. She was especially wonderful with our toddler- attentive, gentle and so in tune with his needs. And she handled our kindergartners' big personality and big energy beautifully, meeting him with playfulness, structure and so much encouragement. We could not have asked for a better experience. Any family would be lucky to have her!
