My Darling Diane

If you know me at all, then you've heard me talk about my wonderful Diane. She is the babysitter for Alice when I work. And, if you know me at all, you know I LOVE Diane and can't live without her!

Alice absolutely LOVES her and calls her NaNa. She is like a 3rd grandmother to Alice and that is JUST they way I want it. I was worried about leaving Alice while I worked and I really wanted to leave her in a family environment. Diane is just that. She really is just like family to Alice and us.

I could sing her praises all day, but that could take ALL day, so I will mention a few of my favorite things about her:

  • Alice is greeted and said goodbye to everyday with a million hugs and kisses from Diane.
  • She has a schedule that Alice LOVES. I think it’s so good for kids to have a schedule, especially when they are away from the home, because it gives them stability.
  • Diane feeds her nutritious meals. (Something I am NOT so good at...and for some reason, Alice eats SO many more veggies at Diane's house!)
  • Alice gets to see her many friends every day. She is greeted everyday with her friends hugging her and complimenting her clothes to which Alice turns around like a model to give them the full effect.
  • Alice is SO social and has amazing social skills because of her time at Diane's. She would have lost her mind staying at home with me all day. She talks about her friends and Diane on the weekend and can't wait to see them again.
  • Alice gets preschool included for FREE! Diane has the cutest lessons and art projects for the kids. She comes home singing the alphabet or saying her colors.

Pretty much...the only way I could work and feel good about it was knowing Alice was safe and super happy at Diane's house. I just want to publicly thank Diane and let her know how much I love her and how much she means to my little family.

Now, it’s your LUCKY day! This seldom happens, but Diane has a couple of openings. I think that anyone that gets her is VERY blessed. Plus, she is very affordable (and who doesn’t love that!)

If you are interested, I would act fast! Give me a call and I can give you her number, or you can email Diane directly at dimcguffin@comcast.net.

LOVE YOU DIANE!

I wish I had kids just so they could hang out with Diane. That is the perfect setup!

I was always so impressed by Diane. She would call both you and Chandy during the work day to give you an update to let you know what the kiddos were up to. Nobody goes to that kind of trouble, but Diane does. I'm glad you have her in your corner!
