About Alana

Experience: 3 yrs

Hi, I'm Alana! I was born and raised in Louisiana and am currently on my third year of studying mechanical engineering at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette. I've always been fascinated by how things work, so that curiosity led me to engineering, but beyond the textbooks and machinery I've always loved working with kids. For over three years, I've cared for children ages 6 months to 11 years. I'm CPR and First Aid certified, and I love leading everything from educational games to exciting, creative fun. Whether it's crafts, outdoor play, or helping with homework, I aim to create a safe, welcoming space where kids feel comfortable to be themselves. I believe childhood should be full of joy, learning, and a little magic but maybe that's the Disney fan in me! I'm dependable, energetic, and dedicated to making every moment fun, safe, and memorable.

Alana is a truly heartwarming and a dependable young woman. Her social skills with kids and reliability are unmatched, she has a natural talent for connecting with children , my two boys love her. She would be a great choice for anyone seeking a nanny or babysitter.
