A little bit about me
Hello, I am Desiree Munford. A 27 year old free lance nanny! I graduated from Alabama A&M with a BLS in Human Development and Family Studies and I have recently obtained MSW. Taking off with my passion I begin freelance nannying in 2019. Along with building my own business I have worked in several group homes, preschools, and done on the side in home babysitting. Working with kids has always been my passion . From the experience I’ve gained in multiple schools and day cares I have strengthened many skills that allow me to care for children. I am also a children's book author! I am a very diligent hard worker and would love the opportunity to work with your family.

"Lakisha is incredible. She is gifted with children of all ages and has helped our toddler to blossom. She is constantly teaching and modeling kind behavior, age-appropriate language development, and social skills, and has been such a warm and loving presence in our son’s life (and our lives!).
As a mom of grown children herself, Lakisha is able to instinctually care for your little one like they are her own, so it’s easy to trust her! One of the first early evenings I asked her to watch my son, I came home to him happily playing in pajamas, freshly bathed, and ready for bed (and I hadn’t even thought to ask for her to do bathtime!). She also established trust with our sensitive little guy very early which says a lot! He always has a good time and a new adventure with Lakisha and she is always thinking of enriching activities to do with him!
Lakisha is reliable, punctual, and an open communicator. You won’t regret hiring her to care for your littles!"

"From the very beginning, Sadah established a strong bond with our child, creating a nurturing and safe environment. She has a remarkable ability to engage young children through age-appropriate activities, encouraging both education and play. Whether it was through arts and crafts, storytelling, or outdoor play, she always found ways to stimulate our child’s curiosity and creativity.
Sadah is also very reliable and punctual, which gave us great peace of mind knowing our child was in good hands while we were at work. She has always maintained open communication with us, providing regular updates on our child’s activities and development.
Moreover, Sadah is very proactive when it comes to our child’s health and safety. She is well-versed in first aid and has handled minor emergencies with composure and care.
In summary, I believe Sadah would be a valuable addition to any family seeking a loving and responsible caregiver. We were sad to see her go as our child transitioned to school."

Hi! My name is Caiden, but you can call me Cai. I’m 20 years old and an online student at Morgan State University. I recently moved to Atlanta and am looking for a family I can support with dependable, compassionate childcare. I have years of hands-on experience caring for children through my family’s daycares in Philadelphia and by helping raise my younger siblings, including my nonverbal autistic brother. My experience includes newborns, infants, toddlers, and school-aged children. I’m comfortable with bottle and formula preparation, diaper changes, meal prep, light housekeeping, nap routines, and creating fun, educational activities. I’ve also taken child development and CPR training courses, giving me both practical and educational experience. I strive to create a safe, nurturing environment where children feel supported, parents feel at ease, and every day is filled with learning, patience, and care.
