About Derek

Experience: 7 yrs

I'd describe my personality as Extroverted, Playful, and Ecstatic! :) I like working with kids because it's so much a blast! They are full of energy and are always down to fun things and always up for an adventure. Working with kids adds joy to my life and I grew up with babysitters and went to camps all the time and I know how fun it was to have sitters to play with. Having cool sitters and counselors is like having that cool older sibling you always wish you had. I always had a blast with babysitters and counselors and I hope to create those special fun memories for them as I still cherish my own that I've made with others. One thing you should know about me is I am a firefighter and I am CPR certified and have various life support training under my belt so please feel at ease that god forbid anything happens you'll already have a first responder right on the scene :)

Our family is so happy with Derek! Even my dog, who is a bit shy around strangers, warmed up to him right away. My 13 months old is going through separation anxiety and could not be left alone with people who are not myself or my husband. We did a trial with several babysitters and he cried very much with everyone with little interaction. He clicked right away with Dereck and they hang out very nicely together! I feel very safe knowing that Derek hangs out with him because my little boy climbs everywhere and he is very heavy and Derek can definitely handle him! Strongly recommended.
