Barrie was the ninth child of ten (two of whom died before he was born), all of whom were schooled in at least the three Rs in preparation for possible professional careers. He was a small child and drew attention to himself with storytelling. He grew to only 5 ft 31⁄2 in. (1860-1936).

Nana is a St. Bernard who appears in Disney's 1953 animated feature film Peter Pan. She is the Darling family's nursemaid.
The Darling children become very sleepy as their parents leave the room. This may not be merely because it is their bed time. The "tonic" given to the children by Nana may have been morphine. It was quite common in the early 20th century to give children "soothing syrups" and "tonics" to control their behavior.
In fact, Nana was modelled on Barrie's own dog at the time he wrote the “Peter Pan” play, Luath – a black and white Landseer Newfoundland named after a dog in a Landseer painting, and the costume for the human actor who originally played “Nana” faithfully reproduced Luath's own markings.

Her exact age is not specified in the original play or novel by Barrie, though it is implied that she is about 12–13 years old or possibly younger, as she is "just Peter's size".
Not a lot is confirmed about Jane's children, except the fact that Peter Pan, later Banning, marries a Moira Darling/Banning AND that he use to carry away a "Margaret Darling" to Neverland for the purpose of Spring Cleaning.
