Hi! I’m Jessica, originally from Germany and currently living in the United States. I’m studying Theater Arts, and working with families helps me support my education while doing something I truly love. I have been caring for children since I was 15 years old. Back home, I worked as a tutor at my school and regularly looked after my younger cousins and my stepsister. Since November 2024, I have been in the U.S. as an Au Pair and nanny, gaining extensive experience with children of all ages, from babies to teenagers. I can also provide references and feedback from the families I’ve worked with. I speak fluent German and English, and I’m currently learning Spanish. I’m a passionate cook (I previously worked as a breakfast manager in a surf camp) and I enjoy preparing healthy, delicious meals for kids and families. I’m energetic, loving, caring, reliable, organized, tidy and mostly Read more flexible with schedules and needs. Some of my favorite activities with toddlers are playing at the playground, reading stories, crafting, and painting. With older kids, I love board games, baking together, and being creative. In general, I’m excited about anything the children enjoy. I love following their interests, supporting their imagination, and making sure they are safe and happy. I also have experience with dog sitting and dog walking, and I absolutely love spending time outdoors with pets. Whether you’re looking for a responsible nanny, occasional babysitting, house sitting, or pet care, I would love to support your home and family. I truly enjoy helping children learn, grow, and feel safe and understood. I’m excited to meet you and hopefully become a trusted part of your everyday routine! Feel free to reach out with any questions. I would be happy to chat and share more about my experience.
