Meet Dehkontee

  • Speaks English
  • Comfortable with pets

Hello my name is Dehkontee, I am 29 years old and I recently moved to Portland from Washington DC. I am still learning the area. I work as a full-time peer support specialist in Portland, but my love for kids, people, and animals also drives me to work in this area. I have over 10+ years’ experience as a babysitter and a nanny working with preschool through 6th grade, and infants. I'm also a college student at PSU (Portland State University) obtaining my bachelors in social work. I am also willing to help with some homework. In my experience I was an after-school sitter and a full-time nanny. I also own my own car and I am willing to drive. I'm a nonsmoker. I am also a dog owner so I would not mind being around your pets (except snakes) . I am very loving, patient, outgoing, and love having Read more activities that children find entertaining. I also love learning from children. Babysitting and being a nanny are things I love doing on the side because every day is something different. I will be happy to provide references as well as meet or chat on phone or by email. I look forward to meeting your beautiful family.
