A little bit about me

Hello, my name is Deborah Danielle Denney. I am 38 years old and I currently am A Caregiver for A 14 year old Autistic boy named Lance. Though I spend a lot of time with Lance, waking him and getting him ready for school, then driving him to school/back- I have a lot of free time that I would much rather spend attending to someones’ needs. The less time I have to spend on myself, the better. I’m guilty of frivolous spending or being an unpaid taxi. Time is money, in my mind.(Spend wisely)
* Unfortunately, I must share the fact that my past has some mistakes and is still haunting me. My husband passed away in 2017 from a brain aneurysm, suddenly, and when I lost him- I somewhat lost myself. I turned to my family for Support and Love and they were doing drugs. So I too began to have an addiction. I’m now 9 years clean and sober and I take part in meetings, and have A sponsor. Proving my Character as it is today is all I can do.

Thank you for your time and hopefully, your understanding.

A little bit about me

I am a compassionate, dependable caregiver who truly finds joy in supporting children as they grow, learn, and feel safe in the world around them. My experience working with children including those with special needs has shaped my patience, creativity, and ability to meet each child where they are. I believe every child deserves to feel understood, encouraged, and valued.

Being a nanny is more than a job to me it’s about building trust with both children and families, creating a nurturing environment, and becoming a positive, steady presence in a child’s life. Whether I’m helping with daily routines, supporting development, or simply sharing meaningful moments through play and learning, I bring genuine care and dedication to everything I do.
