A little bit about me

Hello! You can call me Desi. I moved to New York from Nashville, TN in 2021 and have been nannying full-time since. My experience with kids has been growing since I was a kid myself. My nanny career started in 2020 when I was able to tutor and nanny the best 5 year old girl. Since, I have been with an 18 month old, a 6-9 year old, and a 3/4 and 6/7 year old. I love watching kids learn, understand, and interact with the world. I think that curiosity is fundamental to play and I believe that play is crucial for all of us as humans to inspire creativity, growth, imagination and expansion. I do this job because it’s important for me to do something meaningful with my work and I want to help kids grow into conscious, caring, thoughtful adults.

A little bit about me

*I can provide proof of FBI and DOE background checks/fingerprinting.*

Former nanny, current Elementary Education student looking to get back into the profession while finishing my teaching degree. In my previous nannying job, I stayed with the same family for 5 years until they moved out of the state. During those 5 years, the 3 children I cared for ranged in age from newborn to 10 years old. I coordinated and managed school and extracurricular schedules for all 3 children, prepared enriching activities to stimulate and engage the children in spite of the large age range, instilled an enthusiasm for reading through daily dedicated reading time and planned literacy activities. For the two oldest children who were of school age, I launched snd maintained social media groups for their classes where homework and classroom announcements were posted for parents, as well as assist in nightly homework in all general education subjects.

A little bit about me

While I have no official nannying experience, I am more than willing to learn and have been paid to babysit family friends' children of all ages while in high school from infants to pre-teens. I am essentially a giant child at heart and have been told many times by multiple people that I should work with children. I have a bachelor's degree in Linguistics and took a course in child language development. I hope to one day attend graduate school to be a speech therapist in order to help children with speech problems and/or elderly patients as well. I took many years of French in middle school, high school, and college, and while I am not fluent or near fluent, I would love to teach some French to your children! I like to think of myself as fun, but able to discipline when necessary. I will be moving to NYC for a job when the opportunity arises so start dates are flexible but would prefer after Jan 1. I would also prefer to be paid legally on the books whether it's via care. com or other.

A little bit about me

I love babies and children.
As the second oldest of five, I've always been responsible for caring for someone younger than myself. I've worked with children ages 18 months to 12 years as a Spanish teacher for a Montessori school. I've also babysat for friends throughout the years.

My greatest strength is my attitude. I have a strong set of values that include gratitude and loyalty toward employers, receptivity and patience toward children, and compassion toward all people. I balance productivity and playfulness well and believe I'd make a great addition to your family.
