About Deidre
COVID-19 vaccinated
After babysitting through all of my teen years, volunteer support for children became my passion and joy. In 2000, I discovered my aptitude for infant care, and I became exceptionally proficient with infants and toddlers. I was a board member of the Carrollton Early Childhood PTA, providing programs and support for children from birth to Kindergarten. My classes include infant and Early Childhood Development, Adolescence & Puberty, and "Tech Generation: Raising Balanced Kids In A Hyper-Connected World." I am certified in CPR and first aid. I am up to date on the Developmental Milestones for 0 to age 5 updated through the AAP. I also built a career as a self-employed hairstylist, providing me with excellent listening skills. In 2004, I became a full-time caregiver and home manager. I am currently in training as a Birth Doula. I am a confident, caring, empathetic, and engaged nanny. I am also qualified to assist with home care.

Deidre attended a three-day wedding with us to watch our newborn. She was punctual to all the events, respectful of the wedding environment and attentive to our baby's needs. We are lucky to have had Deidre's help for the weekend.
