Hi! My name is Desiree and I am a soon to be 22 year old. I was born and raised in Aurora but currently live in Geneva. I have been working with children in a variety of settings for over 6 years. Teaching children is my passion. I was previously employed with a real estate appraiser firm, but realized real estate really isn't for me. Previous to this experience, I babysat children even when working the typical 9-5. I have worked with families who have had one child to working with families that had multiple children. I have experience working with newborns and autism children as well as working with twins and triplets. I know how to prepare healthy meals and enforce nap time if need be. I also enjoy doing arts and crafts, reading as well as exploring the outside. I am in the process of furthering my education Read more where I will go to obtain a bachelor's degree in criminal justice in hopes of becoming a police office. In my free time I enjoy cooking, hiking, doing yoga, and being around family and friends. Spending time with children is the only work I have encountered in my life that has not felt like work to me.
