About Detra

Experience: 10 yrs

Supporting families by providing reliable, high-quality care is my true passion. With 10 years of professional nanny experience and 20 years in Early Childhood Education, I bring a calm, patient, and creative approach to your home. I hold a Child Development Associate (CDA) credential and maintain current CPR training and First Aid certification. Whether we are engaging in outdoor sports, solving puzzles, or playing educational games, I prioritize your child's development and joy. I am happy to assist with meal preparation, light housekeeping, and swimming supervision. I strictly follow your preferred communication style and household rules to ensure consistency. I am comfortable caring for up to two children and have a reliable vehicle for travel.

Detra is a wonderful person and an incredible caregiver. She is kind, patient, and respectful. She is also genuine in her interactions, warm, and an amazing listener. It is inspiring seeing the way she treats children and how much love they have for her. She has become a wonderful extension to our family, and we are all so grateful for the care and guidance she brings into our home every day.
