Hello all! My name is Danielle. I'm 41 years old and a mother of two. (11 and 3) i began my career work in retail sales and explored all over from banking, fast food, juvenile caretaking then to child care. I began watching my first baby when i was 10. I began it as a career when I was 23. I got my CDA- though it expired and i never reapplied. I got a majority of my knowledge in infant care through hands on experience but also through Bright Horizons - Cornell childcare center. Through them i took many courses even a week long seminar at Syracuse University. I'm very familiar with ages 6 weeks-3 years though i have also done work with preschoolers for short times. I'm a sahm with our 3 year old but like all families could use some extra work/money- not full time. Progressive minded- using Read more talk/sing/play. Redirection and distraction. Positive affirmations and support.

Danielle was our nanny for a year and a half, caring for our daughter from 6 months old until she began nursery school. From the very beginning, Danielle loved and cared for our baby as if she were her own, and that meant everything to us. She was attentive, nurturing, and truly engaged every day, always playing, singing, reading, and helping our daughter learn and grow in such meaningful ways. Danielle took her job seriously and approached caregiving with so much love, patience, and responsibility. What stood out most to us was her communication and genuine love for what she does. We always trusted her immensely and felt complete peace knowing our daughter was in her care. Danielle became such an important part of our lives and will forever feel like part of our family because of the incredible care she gave our child during such precious early years. We recommend Danielle wholeheartedly to any family looking for someone trustworthy, loving, dependable, and deeply invested in the children she cares for.
