About Desiree

Hi, my name is Desiree Youngblood. I believe I am a great caregiver because I am respectful, understanding, attentive, caring, organized, clean, and I love being there for others. I am currently getting back into nursing school so I can become an LVN and make a career out of taking care of others. I love creating bonds with my patients and doing everything I can to make sure they are comfortable. I can guarantee that I will take great care of you and/or your family and be there for you whenever you need me, anything you ask of me will get done.

Babysitter

Jan 2017 - Nov 2018
Babysitting Service
While I was here I was also a babysitter for children of practically all ages. Taking care of children is something I absolutely love doing. During this time, I was cooking their food for them, picking up behind them, playing around with them, reading to them, doing outdoor activities such as going to the park or going for a walk, assisting them to the bathroom if necessary, and making sure they're receiving nothing but love and attention while in my care.

Antelope Valley Care Ctr
I was a nursing student when I was volunteering here and I really enjoyed my time. I learned a lot about the field and learned how to treat wounds, how to properly distribute medication, how to care for a diabetic, a lot more.

Since I was a child, I've loved helping other people. I enjoy working with people of all ages and circumstances. What excites me most about this position is the opportunity to help those with disabilities live happier, healthier lives. I think helping other people affects the local community positively, so I'd feel honored to accept such a vital role. I'm interested in being a caregiver because I'd like to increase the amount of care the elderly population receives. As I learned through my previous health care experience, this population often benefits from caregivers who provide companionship and who pay attention to detail. This can help improve the daily lives of this population. I'd love to be a part of that effort through this position and help improve the kind of care this group receives
