Hello my name is Desiree. I'm 34 years old. I'm from West Africa, the Ivory Coast. I have a Bachelor of Arts degree. I took some classes in effective communication and strategies, in speech, sociology and psychology. I also took some courses in early childhood education and health and safety for children. I'm fluent in French and I enjoy cooking, baking and listening to music. I love arts and I love making art crafts and jewelry crafts as well. I also enjoy swimming and jogging only when the weather allows me to. I've been working with children in a variety of capacities for 10-13 years as most nanny. I started as a babysitter, working in church nurseries from newborn to 5 years old. I've been a mother's helper, I've been in call 100% for a new single mother , I've worked in my aunt's daycare back home. Being the last Read more born of 5 children I was the one taking care of my nephews and little cousins. I've babysat my friends' kids. I've been on call weekends for parents night out. You name it. I've done a little bit of all of it. I also teach French so I get the opportunity to work with kids in a teaching capacity as well.
