A little bit about me

Hello My name is Deserie and I am fairly new to the LA area. I’m originally from Massachusetts, and yes I am definitely excited to be away from the cold. I come from a close knit family where assisting in the care of all younger family members was a sometimes protested requirement, but it has made caring for children something I’ve grown to be really excited and passionate about. I have seven years of direct care with a now young man who I spent 5 years babysitting and two years as a live in. I have expert organizational skills, time management, and a flare for fun. I can certainly assist in creating a reliable, excitable, stable, and caring environment for your child and/or children. I would prefer full time hours, but I am open to part time hours with proper incentive!

A little bit about me

Within the last few years, I have worked with different age groups within different educational settings. I was a Jumpstart Corps member where I worked with TK and Kindergarten to build literacy skills, social skills, and language skills. I have worked as a floating daycare assistant where I worked with infants and young children. My responsibilities varied from diaper changing, leading small group instruction, outside supervision, singing, reading books, and much more. I worked primarily with the 6 month olds to 2 1/2 year olds. Most recently, I was a teacher’s assistant at a primary center for 2 1/2 years. There I worked primarily with struggling students and/or English learners in Kinder and 1st grade. Here I grew my knowledge of the curriculum aspect of childcare. I was in charge of building my own lesson plans, small group instruction, outside supervision, and much more. I have a huge passion for helping children grow academically, socially, emotionally, and everything in between.
