Looking for work as a babysitter or nanny

Meet Joleen

  • Comfortable with pets
  • Has a car

I have 3 beautiful children that I am extremely proud of. Two that will be in school from 9-3, and only one that will accompany me (a 3 year old boy). Prior to having them I was a Special Education teacher and thoroughly loved connecting with and empowering kids of any age to meet their potential and to enjoy being themselves. I love art projects, games, and laughing and believe learning happens more through these thing than through rigid lessons and instruction. I am high energy, patient, and kind and always try to understand the motivation behind a child's behavior. Being a nanny and bringing my own children has allowed me the opportunity to continue doing the above-mentioned and to spend time with my kids. I think kids thrive through gentle consistency and predictability in an atmosphere where they feel safe, accountable, important, and listened to.
