Meet Deirdre
- Comfortable with pets
Hi, my name is Deirdre (or Dee for short), I’m located in Ogden Utah. Not sure why or how to change my profile listing in Slc utah. I have reliable transportation and will have my own vehicle very soon! I have three dogs and a cat of my own, I love animals. I enjoy making jewelry, creating art, dancing, adventuring, and learning in my free time. I am passionate about creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for children! With one year of childcare experience, I have developed strong skills in engaging with kids of various ages and personalities. I have nannying experience, having cared for a family over the summer (ages 7 and 12), and I also helped look after their pets. Additionally, I have experience caring for newborns and toddlers. I am comfortable caring for up to three children at a time (or possibly more, depending on their Read more ages). My goal as a caregiver is to provide a space where children feel secure, respected, and encouraged to grow, while also ensuring that parents feel at ease knowing their little ones are in good hands. I value open communication with both children and parents to ensure everyone feels informed and comfortable. I also prioritize following household rules and enforcing them as directed by parents. I love engaging in activities like board games, dancing, singing, exploring nature, and creating artwork. I am always open to learning new games and activities to keep kids entertained and stimulated. I believe every child is unique and special, and I strive to continuously improve my caregiving techniques to provide the best experience possible. I strongly value my work ethic. I am an extremely attentive, hardworking caregiver who is always eager to help. For convenience, I am happy to negotiate my hourly rate based on factors such as the length of care, the number of children, and overall responsibilities. If my rate initially seems outside your budget, I am open to discussing an arrangement that works best for both of us. If you’re looking for a responsible, caring, and dedicated babysitter, I would love the opportunity to support your family!
