Hello! My name is Destenie and I'm 23 years old. I'm very excited about Care.com because babysitting has always been my favorite job/thing to do. I have been babysitting children since the 8th grade. I started by babysitting my siblings, family members children, my neighbors children and then my friends' children. I have babysat a range of ages; from a 3-week-old infant to pre-teens. I have done AM care including morning baths, breakfast, getting dressed to dinner, bath and bedtime. I love playing with children and I am not scared of getting down on the floor to play. I love to do activities that they enjoy, but also educating at the same time. I also have babysat a lot of kids who have a hard time when their parents leave; therefore I believe I do an excellent job with comforting children. I've actually received other babysitting jobs because parents would tell their friends about how understanding and consoling I am. I'm open, committed, and will obey all and any of your suggestions, opinions, and rules you have with your kids. I'm all about safety! I am a senior nursing student at La Salle and am currently taking a break to help out with family needs. I'm CPR certified, have FBI clearance, Pennsylvania Child Abuse Clearance, and papers stating I am drug free! I also have a clean driving record. I also do not smoke. I'm a dependable, professional, trustworthy, loving, caring, reliable, an honest person and I am very flexible with hours.

Destenie has been watching our now eight-month-old son since late July (so a little more than three months now). We love her and are so grateful for the wonderful care she provides for our son. She has been terrifically flexible with our variable schedules and has worked some long days without complaint. My favorite part about Destenie is that she treats this position like a real job in terms of responsibility, but whenever I ask her if she can work, she replies that she's excited to come play with my son. I love having someone in our home who so obviously loves him and who is committed to his healthy growth and development. I feel like Destenie is a member of our household and cannot rave about her enough. Thanks, Destenie!
