About Deborah
Experience: 10 yrs
I am an enthusiastic and very patient caregiver, with a particular joy in working with little ones. I have worked in daycares, taught co-op classes to home schooled students of all ages, and raised five children of my own. I also ran a licensed day care in my home for 3 boys ages 18 months, 2 and 4 yrs. I have expertise in musical interaction and hands-on learning. I provided daily educational stimulation in game playing (indoors and out), crafts, story reading and serving nutritious meals and snacks. As a Nanny, I have cared for three families with toddlers. Care involved diaper changes, meals, baths, naps, story time, educational playtime, and outings. I am CPR certified and trained in First Aid as of February 2024.
Most recent review
Debbie has cared for our (now 15 month-old) daughter for several months now, and has been a wonderful caregiver for her. The moment we met Debbie and she met our daughter, we knew that she would be a caring, engaging, gentle, and intelligent addition to our daughter's life, and we're so happy she was willing to work with us. Debbie was flexible in working with us to craft a mutually beneficial schedule, and always (always!) showed up with new and interesting toys and projects for the day. She was willing to take daily outings and even taught our daughter sign language and songs. Debbie also took meticulous notes to help us stay in touch with our daughter's daily happenings.
