About Deana

Experience: 10 yrs

Hi! I'm a former special education teacher with 12 years of classroom experience and 6 years as a full-time nanny. I've had the joy of working with children of all ages, from infants to teens, including those with autism, cerebral palsy, and developmental delays. I'm passionate about providing dependable, compassionate care while fostering meaningful connections with both kids and parents. I'm patient, structured, and nurturing-I believe in maintaining a routine but also know when flexibility is key. I've built lasting relationships with the families I've worked with and bring that same commitment to every new role. I'm also a mom to a wonderful 15-year-old daughter. In my free time, I love being outdoors, doing art, singing, cooking, and spending time with my dog Roxy.. I'd love to connect and see how I can support your family's unique needs!

We were lucky to be introduced to Deana by a mutual friend and privileged to have her join our family as a nanny to our children for the past 2 years. Deana is trustworthy and extremely dependable, as well as a nurturing and caring role model. Her background as a teacher is a bonus as she has a great understanding of child development and lots of patience! What started as a job to care for our five-month-old in 2019 turned into more responsibility for Deana when the pandemic hit, and all our 3 children were home. She took on the added responsibilities with excellence. Each of our children has developed a special bond with Deana and love her! Of course, mom and dad love her too! From day one, I felt at ease with Deana and knew my children would thrive in her presence. Our youngest will be starting preschool, which is the only reason Deana will unfortunately no longer be working with us. I HIGHLY recommend her, and any family would be lucky to have her!
