About Dennette
Experience: 10 yrs
My name is Dennette, I have over 30yrs of experience with preemies to age 12. I had a daycare in my home for 8 yrs specializing in newborn to age 3, caring for more than 25 children. A Nanny for a preemie to 2 yrs old, set of triplets, a 2 yr old and 10-month-old and then for a 13-month-old, 3 1/2 yr old and 6 yr old. The 6 yr old was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes 2 month after I started. I had to take full care of her. My last family was a 6 kids. I absolutely love what I do. I have discipline of the military and the love and understanding of a mom. As a Nanny I care for the family along with the child. Helping with laundry, shopping, cleaning and errands can be added to make your time at home less stressful. My specialties are but not limited to; sitting up, crawling, walking, eating, naps, speaking, colors , numbers, songs.. I'm great at art, reading, dancing, silly time, schedules and organization for the children, along with manners and respect for themselves and others.

I honestly do not even know where to start! To say you have hit the nanny/childcare provider jackpot is an understatement. Dennette was our nanny for almost 5 years, it broke our hearts to move on - she is family. My youngest is 5 and in school, and we just don't need the full-time child care anymore. We have 6 children and had the opportunity to see Dennette interact with our then newborn all the way through our now 11 year old. She interacts well with children of all ages, grading the amount of support that the children need. My preference for a child care provider is one that encourages my children to be independent and self-reliant to the best of their developmental level, and Dennette followed my lead naturally. I have learned so much from her... From how to clean a gross pan to some pretty ingenious ways to teach a child how to organize their closet. I cannot say enough about Dennette - she will always be a part of our family!
