Hi - My name is Dana and I am a career nanny in Louisville, CO. I have 9 years of professional childcare experience working with kids from birth through middle school. I have my bachelor’s degree in psychology from the University of Colorado Boulder with a focus on child development. I am also CPR certified, a trained Newborn Care Specialist, and a certified Child Passenger Safety Technician. Additional trainings I’ve attended through the Colorado Shines early childhood education program include ”Infant Safe Sleep Practices”, “Calming Chaos by Promoting Positive Behavior”, and “Cooking Matters: Creating Healthy Mealtime Attitudes”. I’m also currently in trainings to become a birth and postpartum doula and babywearing educator. As a career nanny I feel broadening my knowledge of childhood development is of the utmost importance so I am continuously seeking new opportunities for continuing education. I currently work for an amazing family with a baby the Read more same age as my 1 year old son; it has been such an incredible experience watching the boys grow up together, as my employers can attest. My hours are being reduced in June so I’m hoping to pick up some extra hours this summer babysitting for a family who would appreciate having my son around as an extra playmate for their child. In my childcare practice I incorporate RIE, Montessori, and whole-brain child philosophies with the goal of promoting autonomy and emotional intelligence in the children for whom I care. If you are interested in seeing if I would be a good fit for your family please don’t hesitate to reach out, I look forward to hearing from you.
