A little bit about me

Hi! My name is De’Lysa, and caring for children has been at the heart of my career for years. I have a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology and am currently pursuing my Master’s in Social Work. My experience includes working as a teacher, foster care worker, and mental health specialist. I’ve also been babysitting and tutoring since I was 15 years old.

I believe every child deserves a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment where they can learn, grow, and feel valued. Whether it’s helping with homework, creating fun activities, maintaining routines, or simply providing a caring presence, I strive to support both children and their families. I am patient, dependable, organized, and skilled at communicating with parents to ensure their children receive the best possible care.

I want to be a positive, trusted support for your family and someone your children feel comfortable, safe, and happy with each day.

I would love the opportunity to connect and learn more about your family’s needs!
