About Jacqueline

Hi! I'm Jackie! I am 23 years old with with a little over five years of childcare experience. I graduated in February 2025 from Unity Environmental University with a B. S in Animal Science, and I plan to continue my education in the future to obtain a M. S in Marine Biology. I lived in Florida for 3 years during school, but now I am enjoying my time in Palatine living close to my family and friends again! I genuinely love spending time with kids of all ages and supporting them however they need. I come from a family of teachers, so helping with schoolwork, tutoring, and encouraging learning is something I naturally prioritize (if that applies to your needs). I'm also comfortable working with children of any health or developmental background and always aim to create a calm, supportive, and positive environment. Along with childcare, I'm a big animal lover (of course) and have lots of dog-sitting experience, so pets are always a plus in my book. I have references available upon request!
