Dana is awesome! I felt very comfortable having her watch my 2 and 5 year old boys. She made muffins with them, brought her guitar and sang songs, and brought them a few fun bath toys. They love her and we loved the notes that she left chronicling their evening together. I would highly recommend Dana.

Dana did an excellent job watching our 6 month old son. She played music, sang for him, played games with him, and even made us dinner! She took notes on his day and sent me a picture of him. I really appreciated the way she went above and beyond the call of duty. She was very caring and meticulous.
