Daria Romaniuk is an Associate Professor at the Daphne Cockwell School of Nursing at Toronto Metropolitan University. She has a strong clinical background in pediatric nursing and emphasizes the importance of the relationships that nurses establish with children and families in care settings. Her master's degree focused on the parents' perspective of the relationship with their hospitalized children, while her PhD research examined parental participation in the context of family-centered care. Daria is a member of the 'Living Illness Lifespan' research cluster, which integrates a pediatric family-centered care perspective. She is particularly interested in fostering students' knowledge and skills to establish therapeutic relationships, which she considers fundamental to providing high-quality nursing care. Daria's academic interests include the use of simulation in nursing education, reflecting her commitment to providing nursing students with engaging and challenging learning experiences. She has collaborated with colleagues to develop virtual simulations that offer students easily accessible means of practicing clinical nursing skills, believing that virtual game simulations can serve as valuable stepping stones between classroom learning and clinical practice.
