Hi! Thanks for checking out my profile! My name is Jessica, I'm 29 years old and I have tons of experience taking care of kids of all ages. I've been a babysitter (ages 4 months - 13 years) , a nanny (ages 3-13), a school teacher (12-18), a Sunday School teacher(13-17), a camp counselor (5-10), a nursery worker and more. I am the nanny for your kids because I love to stay active, play outside, and am always up to try new things whether it's a recipe, or a game - I love to read, write, and use my imagination. I've had the joy of caring for kids ranging from infants at 4 months old, to 4 year olds, to 12 year olds, to teaching and mentoring junior high and high school students. It is such a joy for me to interact with, play with, teach and learn from kids Read more of all ages! I've cared for families with up to 3 children. I was a summer camp counselor for ages 4-10. As a counselor I cared for up to 9 children at a time. I've worked in a church nursery with 5 children under age 4. I have prepared meals, given baths, given transportation, and done laundry + light housework. I have coordinated age appropriate indoor and outdoor games, cooking, crafts, and field trips to water parks, the library, and the swimming pool. I enjoy reading, cooking, biking and yoga. I'm different from other nannies because I bring a level of professionalism, gained from working in the professional world for a few years. I am professional when interacting with parents and managing day to day logistics of a kid’s day. I'm also different because I speak Spanish and I am well-traveled. I look forward to connecting with you!
