Hello, my name is Desiree Marcum. I am a caring, passionate, and determined 20 year old trying to make it through life as a hardworking student, but also as a worker.

I have over 10 years in babysitting whether it as family or for one of my mom’s friends. I have knowledge and been certified for blood borne pathogens, CPR, and Basic First Aid in the past as well as winning first place in a state level EMT competition as a Junior in High School.
