Summary

Hello, my name is Cherry. I am 29 years old. My birthday is in March. I am originally from California, but I moved to Utah when I was 9 years old. I love to spend time with my family, and learn new things. I am married to my husband, Jefry, and we have two beautiful children: one girl who is 11 years old, and a boy who is 6 months old. We also have a pet dog named Zeus. My career in caregiving all started when my grandmother became ill in 2018. By 2019, she was unable to care for herself; that's when my family and I would rotate days in caring for her. After my grandmother passed away, I decided to switch my career path to nannying. I have always dreamed of having my own daycare because I love working with kids. I met Janina in 2020 when I moved to Salt Lake after getting married. Janina has been great to work with and a great resource who has helped guide me to great families who are in need of a nanny.

I understand how important it is to trust someone with your children and your home. I provide a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment where children feel secure, valued, and supported in their growth and learning. I am attentive to each child's individual needs and committed to helping them feel loved and encouraged every day. I am also First Aid and CPR certified, offering families peace of mind in the event of an emergency.
