Imagine a world where every parent with cancer receives the care needed for their children – so they have enough time to care for themselves. Now, also imagine a world where every child receives the support they need to cope with their parent’s illness or death.

The Nanny Angel Network provides free, specialized childcare support to parents who have been diagnosed with cancer. We support families in all stages of their cancer journey, whether they were just diagnosed, are undergoing palliative care, are in the recovery period, and following bereavement.

Nanny Angels lessen the impact of cancer on families by engaging children in enjoyable, Child Life informed activities to help reduce any stress or anxiety they may be experiencing due to their parent’s illness or death.

I interviewed my dad on video in his final weeks. When I asked about his work and finding meaning through helping others, he responded, “I don’t think you can be focused on, ‘Oh gee, I want to make a difference.’ It has to be spontaneous. If it’s not…there’s some kind of egotistical thing going on. That’s a red flag. You hope you impact people on the deepest level you are capable of at the time. Sometimes you hit it, sometimes you don’t. You’re trying.
