About Desiree

I'd describe my personality as patient, creative, and compassionate. I love helping children build confidence through play, creativity, and everyday learning. Every child is different, and I enjoy discovering what helps them thrive. I'm looking for a kind, communicative family seeking dependable daytime care. I've worked professionally with children since 2012 and have been a nanny for the same Chicago family since 2013. In my spare time, I like to read, write children's stories, explore Chicago's museums and libraries, garden, create cosplay, and spend time outdoors. I believe every child deserves to feel safe, respected, and truly seen. My top 3 child care skills include creating engaging educational activities, building consistent routines and positive behavior support, and supporting neurodivergent children with patience and individualized care.
