Hi! My name is Savannah, I’m 18 and I grew up in a small town outside of Jefferson, IA. I have two younger siblings and I graduated class of 2025. I’ve worked in 3 different caregiver settings - my first one being in a daycare! I worked from 7:15a-12:40pm for almost a year, I was also getting school credits for it because the daycare was next to my school. I worked mainly in the toddler room - but also have experience with school age to newborn! I am also cpr certified! I worked in two assisted living facilities as well and gained lots of wisdom from my residents, but also got to connect with them and really got to know them!
