Hello! To begin, I started working with kids when I was 10 years old babysitting cousins and siblings. I have worked at 2 daycares in Champaign, and I have a lot of experience working with special needs children and adults. I have most recently worked with a baby that was 18 mos. when I began and is now nearing 2 years! My employers have decided to enroll him in a daycare so he can have the opportunity to socialize with children his own age. My heart is so big that I will miss them all dearly. I'd describe my personality as fun, intuitive, and caring. I love connecting with children and employers as if we are all family. I care not only for children but also for parents. I very much enjoy hearing about your workdays and any recreational activities that you participate in. My skills include socio-emotional education and grounding techniques, conscious discipline, and the awareness of child development in regard to age appropriate education and recreational activities.

We hired Deja to care for our 5-year-old daughter for several full days when school was not in session. Deja is very kind and professional. She found ways to keep our daughter active throughout the day. We have been happy with her as a caregiver and will hire her again.
