Meet Jeri
- Experienced Doula
- Comfortable with pets
- Has a car
I have 4 years of nanny experience and over 15 years of babysitting / paid childcare experience. I recently left my 9-5 job for a better work life balance and to pursue my Masters degree in Speech Language Pathology. I trained as a certified doula after college (BA in Global Politics) and I have a seven year old who attends school from 8:30a-2:30p. I returned to the workforce after my son’s birth and have been working in a corporate environment (data analyst) for the last 5 years. I am an attachment parent and implement Montessori style instruction with my child. I believe in empathy-led parenting / childcare. I believe in meeting children where they are at and customizing my approach to their needs - I think that is key to a confident, securely attached child. I am a big reader (and writer) and I love doing sensory activities (slime, water Read more tables, sand, unique arts and crafts) with my son. I have experience with autism and other developmental disorders and I am well versed on neurodivergence and how to care for children with special needs. Looking for part time work in the late morning to early afternoon during the week, but I can be flexible for the right family. Thank you for reading and please reach out with additional questions!
