Hi! My name is Desiree and I’m 22 years old. I am a current college student at Fanshawe following my passion for photography which started during my previous nanny position, learning how to use my camera with the girls I looked after. Outside of school I love to shoot weddings and sports and I have started my own small business doing so. Some of my other favourite things to do are cook, travel, golf, and being active outdoors going for walks and hikes.
I am extremely self motivated and strive off organization and routine which is great for child care! Many people who know me would tell you I have too much energy and the bubbliest personality. Working with children is something I have enjoyed for many years and I love that I can continue to do so with the career I have chosen.
I worked as a full time Nanny for two years with an amazing family of three girls. After no longer needing full time care, I still continue to watch the girls when needed as we formed an amazing relationship over the years together. Daily duties I performed were preparing snacks and meals, grocery shopping/errands, getting the kids to/from school and helping with online work during school shutdown, cleaning (laundry, dishes, floors, tidying etc, ) and getting the kids to any sports or programs they had. During this time I also occasionally looked after children for other families, when friends of my nanny family also needed childcare. Before working for this family I worked full time for a family of four boys for about a year which included many of the same duties. I also worked at a preschool as an ECA in my spare time during my first year of college. Ages I have looked after are newborn to 14 years old.
I am currently in college with classes on Fridays and some Mondays.
