About Deja

Experience: 6 yrs

I'm a mom of 9 & 4-year-old girls. Managing busy schedules, snack time, nap time, household chores, doctors appointments, and sports practices are things I've mastered. I have experience homeschooling my children and even potty trained my youngest at 5 mos old. I took care of my 3 younger siblings and spent my middle/ high school years volunteering in the church nursery, helping my Girl Scout troop leader mom with kids during field trips, and I am the go to babysitter for my family. I worked for years as a Homecare Aide and Dietary Assistant for inpatient clients. I worked as an in-school counselor for elementary students for YMCA. I love children; I am patient and compassionate yet stern when required. I am the mother of a daughter with an IEP/special needs (I call them eccentricities). I can't count the amount of times my children have received compliments from store clerks, clients, and strangers at the park for being kind and well behaved.
