Nanny in Toronto, Ontario

I'm an

Individual

Hi there! My name is Desiree but all the kids call me Des :) I discovered my passion for childcare 10 years ago when I took my first school pickup job. Since then I’ve had many roles; from occasional evening and weekend sitter, to full time nanny for 2! I’ve loved every opportunity that I’ve had to spend time with these kiddos. I’m grateful to be able to have the chance to make an impact in childrens’ lives and help them learn for the future. I believe in treating children with respect while teaching through “play based” learning activities. Let me know if you think I’d be a good fit for your family!

Recommendations

Desiree is the first and only babysitter that we've used with our 2 girls, and we absolutely love her! She is extremely reliable, kind and patient. Our kids always get so excited when they find out that she's coming over and she does more than we could ever ask of her from feeding, to bathing, playing, reading to them and putting them to bed. We HIGHLY recommend Desiree to care for children of all ages :)

Desiree Heath has been a fantastic nanny! For the past year she has taken care of my son (he was one when she started) with an energetic and positive attitude. Desiree made the transition of going back to work after maternity leave worry free. It didn't take long for my son to bond with and be completely comfortable with her. She has been a life-saver!!!

We strongly recommend Des as a Nanny, she has been a tremendous addition to our household. My daughter absolutely ADORES her, and enjoys her time spent with her throughout the week. Des brings her ECE experience to work by professionally implementing a structured week for our toddler. She encourages various arts & crafts, sensory activities, cognitive skills and field trips. We work very long hours, and Des has always been very flexible and accommodating to our family in the best interest for our daughter. She is a pleasure to be around and most importantly trust worthy.
