Hello! My name is Dana, I worked in Italy as an aupair for many years, and have performed childcare here in the US for occasional as well as overnight stays. It’s been great experience and has taught me a lot about working with children, preparing meals, and being there for kids when their parents are gone. I'm originally from Oak Park. I'm happy to help in any way. I can often be available on short notice, just let me know! Thanks, I look forward to hearing from you. Best regards, Dana

Dana was excellent! She is very nice, easy to talk to and professional. She took care of our sweet Golden retriever with loving care - and also watched our two orange tabbies -while we spent a week out of town. We knew we had a responsible and animal loving person at our home to take care of our pets. She also kept and eye on our house and left it spotless! I would highly recommend her!

Dana filled in for our regular sitter and fit in wonderfully with our 3 children. She was given minimal instruction on how to handle the kids and she just instinctively worked her magic with each child. She always used excellent judgement skills when handling them. She played with my kids, took great care of them, and also brought to their attention when they were not behaving or doing dangerous stunts. She is honest and genuine, takes the time to fill you in on how the day went, and would be a great addition to any family. We fully recommend her and only wish we had an available spot so we can keep her to ourselves!
