About Dana

Hi! My name is Dana and I am a 26-year-old Fredericksburg native. I have worked as a sitter since I was 16 at varying capacities for multiple families over the years. I have experience sitting/nannying part time, regularly and as needed as well as overnights and traveling/vacation. I attended Hartwood Elementary, Gayle Middle and Colonial Forge High in Stafford county and earned my degree in Environmental Sciences from the University of Virginia in 2020. I am also experienced in assisting with virtual education (I served as a nanny for a family throughout the pandemic) and tutoring in multiple subjects. I am proficient in French. I have worked as a ballet instructor for the past six years, teaching ages 5-16. I also run summer dance camps for children ages 3-7. I have plenty of experience working with groups of all types of children. I love to be outside and share my knowledge of the natural world with the younger generation. I am also an artist and love to create with kids.
