About Jessica
Experience: 10 yrs
Hello! I have been watching children for over 15 years, from infancy to teenagers. I have experience with morning routines, daily routines, and nightly routines with all ages of children, and always try to incorporate a creative spin in my care-giving. I am also a certified teacher for both general and special education for grades 1-6, and currently going through the process of obtaining my early childhood certifications. I have classroom experience in a preschool and daycare including special ed and self contained classrooms. I have tutoring experience as well as some homeschooling experience, where I was head teacher and lesson planner for a homeschooling family. I love to create and to let children be the imaginative and incredible minds that they are through prompt, crafts, and projects. Creating developmentally appropriate activities and educational play are my passions that I continue to grow everyday.

Jessica is family to us now. She worked with us taking care of our 5 and 7 year old for the last year. She is extremely caring and always wanting to do new things with the children. They would cook together go and research new ideas at the library and have play dates at the park. Always energetic and full of fun ideas the kids talk about her everyday and remember all the things she taught them. Many times I have been told that's not how Jessica does it. We miss her very much and highly recommend her as a babysitter/nanny.
