About Desirae
Experience: 10 yrs
I'm an experienced, educated, and passionate childcare provider/teacher. In 2008, I graduated with a bachelors degree in Early Childhood Education. Since then, I have been a director of an upscale preschool (Creme De La Creme) and a kindergarten teacher but have transitioned to being a nanny share in my own home for the past 5 years. My husband, Nick, has been a pastor the last 12 years and we have 3 kids. I am a teacher at heart, so I try to help them develop each step of the way, whether that is preschool teaching (I will provide curriculum and teaching), reading time, outdoor fun, crafts, field trips, and naps (if needed). I like to stay active with your kids (if they are appropriate ages) at times going on day trips to kids places in town. At different times, I have nannied for babies, toddlers, and 2 different sets of twins. Throughout the day I send pictures so you never feel disconnected. I hope to meet you and discuss me being your kiddos nanny!

Desirae watched our son when I had to go back to work and he was 5 months old. To say I was nervous is an understatement. We had never had anyone else watch our son and both my husband and I grew up with our grandparents as sitters so we had never used a care service in any way. The fact that we found Desirae is a true miracle. From the moment we met her we knew it was a good fit. She is so warm and welcoming. Our son would giggle with delight when we would drop him off. She would send the best pictures throughout the day of him playing with her kiddos, who are the sweetest and nicest children. She would even hold him as he slept when he struggled to go down for naps. I truly felt like it was a member of my family watching my son. If you're looking for a caregiver who will love your child like their own then look no further. Desirae does fun activities with the children to keep them growing and learning. If we hadn't moved we would still be at Desirae's for care. Look no further!!
