Nana

Nana is a St. Bernard who appears in Disney's 1953 animated feature film Peter Pan. She is the nursemaid of the Darling children.

Personality
Nana is very caring toward the Darling children and treats them as her own pups. The children cherish Nana as an important family member. When Nana was taken to the dog house for the night, it was considered a cruel punishment for the Darlings. Even when George Darling took her to the dog house, he felt sorrow after seeing Nana's saddened face. Nana is in charge of the children's health, giving them medicine presumably every night.

Peter Pan
Nana is first introduced as the Darling family's nursemaid and dog. Nana was first seen doing her daily duties; cleaning the room and putting away the Darling children's toys and games. When Wendy is told she must grow up, she was shocked by the decision. When George Darling begins to storm out the room, he trips over Nana. Both Nana and George fall, but the rest of the family only comforts Nana. George is shocked, and this causes Nana to be put in the dog house. As she was being dragged by the collar, Michael holds on her tail trying to stop George from taking her to the doghouse, but Mary kindly stops him by picking him up and she waves at him sadly. Nana is heartbroken, as she never sleeps in the dog house. George feels sympathy for Nana but claims the children are not puppies and Nana is truly a dog. Peter Pan took the children on a trip to Neverland, and Nana spots the children flying out the window with Peter. Nana is horrified and tries to stop them. Michael Darling spreads some of Tinker Bell's pixie dust on Nana is begins to fly but is held back by the leash waving goodbye. When the Darlings return home from their Neverland flight, Nana is happy to be taken back to the room, as George finally realizes he's been too hard on Wendy and Nana. Nana joins Wendy, George, and Mary Darling as they watch Peter Pan fly away with The Jolly Roger, Captain Hook's ship.
