Hii, I’m Dayana! I’m a caring, responsible, and reliable person who loves spending time with kids. Im taking care of young children, 3 and 4 years old, and I really enjoy playing with them, doing fun activities, going outside, and keeping them happy. I speak Spanish, Ukrainian and English. I would also be very happy to work with families with dogs and cats! I’m available for occasional babysitting, date nights, and weekends.
I am a kind, loving, patient, and attentive caregiver with a genuine passion for play and connection. Over the past 20 years, I have gained extensive hands-on experience caring for children of all ages, from infants to teenagers, always adapting my approach to meet each child’s unique personality and developmental stage. My background includes meaningful experience working with children with special needs, where patience, empathy, and consistency have allowed me to build trust and support their individual growth. I also bring specialized experience teaching children to swim, combining safety-focused instruction with encouragement to help kids build confidence in the water while having fun. I believe that play is one of the most powerful tools for learning, bonding, and emotional development, and I strive to create a nurturing, engaging environment where children feel safe, valued, and excited to explore. Whether it’s through games, creative activities, or one-on-one attention, I am dedicated to providing compassionate, reliable care that families can trust. I’m comfortable and familiar around pets and I’m willing to do personal assistant tasks, such as grocery shopping, dishes, children’s cleanup, etc.

I enjoy helping children learn through play, exploring their interests, and building a trusting relationship with them. I am patient, reliable, and attentive to each child's individual needs. I understand the importance of communication and trust with families, and I always strive to provide high-quality care while making children feel comfortable, happy, and supported.
