AVAILABILITY -    Currently I’m only available for occasional or date nights as I’m working with 2 families during the week through Sittercity & a client referral.   I am experienced with newborn, toddlers & school age children.  I am always open to occasional sitting so that the family & I can get acquainted as well as for date/meeting nights.   I really like reading & playing & visits to the libraries.     I became a child care provider after taking care of kids after school at my church.  I would help them with their homework & I realized that I liked this very much. I help with homework or just teach younger children the basics.  I teach children how to cook or bake when appropriate - or just decorating the finished cupcakes!  I am happy to help with light housework tasks as needed. Previous to the pandemic I was caring for 2 adopted Read more girls; started at ages 2 & 3 for 4 1/2 years. I still care for them occasionally when mom needs to travel. (Shari Corsaro reference available upon request). I have taken care of 3 boys in Westlake for 4 years; they are now in HS/college. (Palmer reference available on request) Recently I took care of 10 month old Nathan in Bay Village every Saturday afternoon through Sittercity (Owad reference available upon request) until his mom’s schedule changed. I love dogs but am allergic to cats. I’m only interested in part time work.

I recently hired Donna to watch my 3 kids a few days a week. She has been wonderful. I have a very crazy schedule and she is super accommodating, and very punctual, which is a huge thing for me! Not to mention she is great with the kids. I love her enthusiasm and energy! My very picky almost 2 year old has taken to her very fast and my older kids enjoy spending time with her. She not only takes care of the kids but she engages them in activities. In fact, she is baking cupcakes with my 8 year old today! I cant wait to get home! lol. And the other day she organized my pantry!!! What more could you ask for! We are super pleased with Donna! She has really been a blessing to our family! And if you want her, you might have to fight me for her!

I hired Donna to take care of my 4 month old daughter and 2 & 4 year old boys while I run around like a mad woman getting my house packed up for our move to Florida. I expected a loving, caring and competent child care provider - what I got was so much more!! Donna is a true blessing and even tho I've only known her for a very short period of time, I love her and think the world of her. Not only did she take very good care of my three little ones, she took very good care of me too!! How you might ask!? By cleaning up the kitchen, tiding up the living room, making lunch for us, folding laundry and on and on. WOW! I did not expect that at all and I am so very grateful that how she operates. She's help make this process of moving to another state so much better. If you get a chance to hire her, do yourself a favor and hire her right away!!! You'll be so happy you did :) Thank you so much Donna!!

I would recommend Donna and am very happy with her performance as a nanny. My son is two & my daughter just turned 6. Donna has watched them in my home, picked them up from school as well as taken them on excursions. Their favorite day was going to what my daughter called a fun fair (an outdoor day for kids with face painting, etc), then to the library & then for ice cream. She is full of energy and knows what kids like for fun but is firm when I want her to be. She is very good at feeding them after school & bathing them as well – lots of bubbles & peek-a-boos. I trust Donna with my house keys as well as with my children at all hours; she is very flexible when my schedule changes and always on time.

Donna has been with us for just a few months, and she is a very welcome addition to our family. We are expecting our 4th child in the next few weeks, and Donna has been so helpful as my energy level diminishes! She is always full of energy and comes to the house with fun/creative "crafts" in mind!

Donna has been working for me on a permanent, part-time basis for about a month or so. At this point, I would give Donna 5 stars because she has a wonderful, enthusiastic approach to our children and is fun to work with. I am at home most of the time even when she is here, and she has been a great extra pair of hands to enable me to get things done around here! My twin babies always ask for her and say her name, and she makes my young son laugh all the time. No TV is needed, just lots of imagination! And, she IS a great cook!

Donna is a great babysitter for my 2 year old son. I feel very safe having her in my home and caring for my child. Donna is very reliable and always arrives on-time. She is an excellent cook and always offers to prepare meals for our family.
