About Jessica

Experience: 8 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

I am comfortable working with kids and pets of all age groups and backgrounds. I am responsible, friendly, and playful, but I also know when it's time to be more firm, especially when it comes to ensuring a safe environment. When I was young, my mother worked as a professional nanny, so I have been around kids my whole life. I started out as a mother's helper when I was about 11-12 years old. As a teenager in high school, I worked as a babysitter for multiple families looking after kids aged 6 months to 12 years old. I also was a camp counselor at both a beach camp & sleepaway camp, and my campers were mainly in the 10-14-year-old age group. I do not have kids of my own, but I have spent a lot of time around my 4 nieces and 2 nephews (aged 6months - 11 years old). I also have a (very) younger sister who is 11.

Jessica was amazing! She feed my cat for 4 days while I was on a trip. She had impeccable communication throughout and even made sure to take the time to send pictures of my pet. I highly recommend her!! Next time I am out of town I will be sure to hire her again.
