About Deshawna

Experience: 8 yrs

My name is Deshawna (Dee), and I'm an experienced infant and toddler nanny leaving my current family at the end of August and am looking for full time position for then! With 7 years of hands-on experience, I offer intentional and nurturing care rooted in early childhood development. I support families through the newborn stage and beyond - including feeding support, soothing, gentle sleep shaping, and developmentally appropriate activities. My care style is strongly influenced by Montessori principles, focusing on respectful caregiving, independence-building, and creating calm, enriching environments for little ones to grow. I'm Infant CPR certified, fully vaccinated, and have strong references from families I've worked with. I also have a portfolio I'd love to share that gives a deeper look into my background, caregiving style, and values. If you're seeking a reliable, thoughtful nanny who supports not just your baby but your whole family's rhythm, I'd love to connect.

Very good with my 7.5 month old son. Caring and attentive. Very organized and sweet. He adores her. They play and read together. She’s here helping my mom while my mom works from home and I go out to work. I’d highly recommend.
