A little bit about me

Hi everyone! My name is Desiree! I go by Des. I am a registered behavioral therapist for kiddos with autism. I have worked with kiddos in all different age groups. From 6 weeks, to 18+ years, with all different types of abilities and disabilities for the last 15 years. I have a passion for nurturing, teaching, and growing with kiddos. Aside from my passion of working with adolescents, I am a mom of an 8 month old, he is my first! I just absolutely love children and always think of the ones I care for as my own. In addition to my background in childcare, I am CPR and First Aid Certified. I was a CNA for a short period of time, so I do have quite a bit of experience with more clinical needs, as well. Other than that, I am prepared to do light house work, interact with and care for animals, prepare meals, and tutor/help with homework! Just let me know your needs, and I will always try to accommodate! I hope to be your next/new nanny! Thank you for taking the time to read about me.
