My Aunt Amber had twin girls in 2011 and I have been babysitting for them at various times over the years. Sometimes I just help my aunt with them for a few hours, and other times they will come to stay with me for a day or two at my parent’s house. I care for them, play with them, cook for them, clean up after them, take care of their personal care needs, etc. As a Counselor I provided direct care to an individual with special needs. We helped the campers participate in daily CAMP activities including Swimming, Canoeing, Archery, Arts & Crafts, Horseback, etc. I also helped my campers with any needed individual personal care items including showering, changing clothes, toileting, brushing teeth, eating, lifting and transferring from chairs, etc. The campers ranged from 4 years old to 50 years old and mild to severe disabilities, with diagnoses such Read more as: Autism Spectrum Disorder, Intellectual Disability, Down syndrome, Cerebral Palsy, Spina Bifida, visual impairment, and hearing impairment. I received CPR training, sign language education, g-tube education and various other types of education as needed for some of my individual campers.

My name is Janet Desiree was good at first but it became to where I could not depend on her she has forgot to get my daughter to take her to school and has also left my daughter at school never showed up she is an excuse for everything and there are times she doesn't even answer your text or phone calls and never lets you know if she can't show. She us put me In a bind espically since my husband has deployed and with my job I wouldn't recommend her she is t dependable at all!!!!!

Hello my name is Nicole Robinson. I hired Desiree. She seemed very pleasant but was late for the interview. She showed up for one day and watched my son who was in a bad accident and has to use a wheel chair and is in a cast. No issues so I thought. She said she would see me the next day and have a good evening. She was a no show. She didn't call me, text me or let me know that she was not coming. I contacted by all means and still no reply. It put me in a bind because I have to be at work and I am a single parent and my son can not be left alone. Very disappointed in her professionalism.
