Meet Denise

Hello! My name is Denise. I recently earned my Doctorate of Physical Therapy from LSU, and have relocated to South Dakota to be closer to family while I prepare for my license exam. I have provided child-care on and off for over 18 years, however I've provided a modest estimation of 4+ years cumulative experience. My experience is relatively diverse, ranging from occasional baby-sitting to regular after-school care, summer day-care programs to multi-day camping trips for girls' programs. In addition to child-care, I have quite a bit of experience with in-home and community adult care. This includes anything from companion visits to assistance with running errands. I'm well attuned to special needs ranging from cognitive and memory care to physical safety for those with movement impairments and at risk for falls. Other services include: Pet care (drop-in visits or overnight care) House cleaning Tutoring I am BLS CPR certified, which Read more includes training for first aid and critical care for individuals across the lifespan, including infants & toddlers through geriatric populations. More about me: Some of my hobbies include: yoga, hiking & back-country camping, biking, and learning new skills with my hands... my most recent project was renovating an old house! I have 2 fur-babies: rescues Nova and Samford (named after the Auburn University flying eagle and iconic building). They're adult kittens, but I love all animals! Thank you for taking the time to read my bio. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me!
