About Deirdre
Experience: 7 yrs
Hello! My name is Deirdre, and I'm currently working to save up for my bachelors degree in Early Childhood Education. I have 7 years of experience babysitting children from 3 months to 13 years old and have also worked in a children's library for 5 years and in a daycare (2-year-old room). I'm CPR and First Aid certified, fully vaccinated. I am also comfortable with baby led weaning and some sleep training experience as well. I'm happy to assist with homework, and I love promoting reading and imagination through books and stories. I enjoy getting kids outside for fresh air and active play, no matter the season. I am comfortable with meal preparation and helping with household tasks for the kids. While I don't my own have car yet (another thing I am saving up for), I have reliable transportation through family for the time. I can provide more references upon request. Feel free to reach out to discuss how I can help your family!
Most recent review
Deirdre is a national treasure! I am consistently impressed by her level of care, whether she’s engaging with my son in creative play, teaching him new things or navigating tricky toddler meltdowns. Deirdre is extremely trustworthy, professional and kind. Our whole family adores her and we are lucky to have someone like her to help us!
