About Dana

Experience: 10 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

Hello! I have over 10 years of experience working with children in a variety of settings, including as an elementary school teacher, school administrator, and Outward Bound wilderness course instructor. I have a Master's in Teaching and a keen understanding of child development. My strengths include building rapport and trust, fostering a warm and loving environment, and providing the structure and stability kids need to thrive, knowing they are physically and emotionally safe. I am a clear communicator with strong organizational skills. I have training in First Aid, CPR, and water safety. I can help with errands, travel, pets, and other household needs. My schedule is very flexible, as I am a part-time law student attending an online program. I would love to talk with you about caring for your family!

Dana watched our son while my husband and I had our first post-baby date. To say I was nervous to leave him is an understatement, but Dana's warmth and experience with children absolutely put me at ease. She is an excellent communicator and arrived early so that I could fill her in on all the specifics of our sons care. I was able to enjoy my time out with my husband knowing our little guy was in good hands! I would absolutely have Dana watch our boy any time we are in need.
