About Desiree
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
I went to a trade school for ECE for two years, where I would work in the daycare there providing the children with activities to do to expand their creativity. I have a 3 y/o bright eyed, sweet little girl I would have accompanying me. We love animals, doing crafts, play groups and reading! I am also a huge outdoors person and love to hike! I am fully vaccinated and have my own vehicle that I'm willing to use for school pickup/drop-offs, grocery shopping, and any other help you might need! I am really looking froward to summer days spent outside learning and exploring! I look forward to speaking with you!

Desiree has been our nanny since September 2022, when our previous nanny found other employment. We connected with Desiree through a post on Care.com, and we feel so incredibly fortunate that we did! When Desiree first visited with us, she stood out immediately. Not only did our two boys, who were 4.5 years old and 2.5 years old at the time, engage with her right away, but she also asked me a bunch of incredibly relevant questions that showed how experienced she is with kids. These questions were related to their normal daily schedule, how we handle discipline, what we would like to do regarding sickness (with her kiddo and ours), and what our expectations were for her aside from childcare. Throughout her time with us, Desiree has been incredibly flexible with scheduling, and has always been dependable. I have really appreciated how communicative Desiree is- she is happy to text or call anytime, and we are just so very fortunate to have found her!
