About Destiny
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
Hello! I am very patient, caring, and flexible. I have worked with children that range from the ages of 0 (i. e. newborns) to 12+ years. I have 8 siblings, so I naturally have lots of experience helping to raise and take care of my siblings all of my life. As far as paid experience, I have worked in 5 different preschools, was a child development soccer coach, worked as a lead teacher/assistant director for the YMCA of Torrance after school program for grades TK-5, worked as a substitute teacher for all grade levels, and have nannied for multiple families. I am very safety-conscious and am naturally nurturing and caring. I have my own reliable car, 10 years of driving experience with a clean record, am CPR and first aid certified, am COVID-vaccinated, will do meal prep, and will do light housekeeping. I look forward to meeting your children and scaffolding them to encourage growth!

Destiny started working with our family when our daughter was about 10 months old, and took care of our little one for almost 2 years. She quickly adapted to our family and was absolutely wonderful with our daughter. She wasn’t just a nanny, she really became a special part of our family. Destiny has a naturally calm, patient, and nurturing presence. She’s so smart and loving- all qualities that I looked for in a caretaker. She supported all our parenting decisions particularly while we sleep trained, and any time our little one ever got sick. She always went above and beyond our needs, and was super creative and energetic with our rambunctious toddler. As a new mom, I always felt secure knowing that Destiny was with our daughter- always keeping us informed in how she was doing throughout the day. I will truly miss Destiny! Any family would be so lucky to have her. We’re so grateful for our time with her.
