About Dana

Growing up, I was my town's prized babysitter. I nannied all throughout my time. I love children's curiosity, fun and loving nature, I was a 2021 International Nanny of the Year finalist and volunteer mentoring foster children and with animal organizations. I've worked internationally in Russia, Italy and England as a babysitter, nanny, governess, newborn care specialist and English teacher. My skills include arts and crafts, organizing fun activities outside of the home, creating and executing lesson plans, cooking and preparing healthy snacks, helping reinforce politeness and etiquette, supporting emotional and physical needs of children, sleep consulting, potty training, and I'm a master at storytelling! I enjoy traveling, languages, reading, art, cultural events (opera, ballet, theatre, art exhibitions), exercising, writing. I recently published a children's book! Your children will be in great hands as I prioritize their happiness and safety.
