About Dena

Experience: 10 yrs

I'm a single mom and my daughter is going into her senior year of high school next year. I have availability and flexibility. My current position ends at the end of June as baby is going to daycare to socialize. I enjoy keeping children engaged in creative and educational activities. I believe that music fosters language and learning through song and dance. I enjoy making all the baby's food fresh and I believe it keeps them open to trying different foods as they get older. They aren't afraid to try something new. Beware I create little foodies. I'm happy to help prep a meal. Thank you for your consideration and I'm happy to answer any questions.

Dena is a joy! I've known her personally for more than 25 years. Trustworthy, safety conscious, kind and honest. Attentive, engaged, energetic, creative and knows how to create a mentally stimulating and fun environment for kiddos of all ages. She's a great mother herself. Did I mention she's a gourmet level cook???? Bonus!!! You will love her!
