Meet Dana

Most recently, I worked as a nanny in Chicago, caring for one boy from age 5 months-17 months. I completed my Master's in Early Childhood Education in May 2018 and I have over 10 years of experience working with children from ages birth to 6 in home, school, and recreational settings. I have worked as a Kindergarten teacher, a preschool teacher's assistant, a nanny for three Chicago families, a day camp counselor for children with special needs, and a childcare volunteer at a 24-hour crisis nursery. If you think I would be a good fit for your family, please reach out and I would be happy to answer any questions you have for me. .

Dana has been with our family since December, when needed part-time care for our two daughters, then aged 3 months and 22 months. We selected Dana because of her passion for and experience with children and her calm and caring demeanor. Dana was eager to learn and followed our instructions closely and bonded well with both of our girls. She also juggled their sometimes-conflicting schedules with patience and grace. Dana is creative, trustworthy, loving, flexible and always on time, and provides a nurturing, stimulating and secure environment for our girls. I would recommend Dana without reservation!
