Hi, I'm Jo! I have a lot of experience working with kids, particularly under the age of 2. After graduating college in Portland, OR, I worked in several different Montessori preschools in 1-year, 2-year, and infant classrooms. I was an assistant teacher, so I don't have official Montessori certification, but I learned so much along the way. I loved the infant classroom especially, and would love to work with that age group again, but I enjoy working with kids of all ages. I spent a few years as a nanny in college, worked with elementary-aged children for a short time with Sunnyside Environmental School's SMART reading program, and worked with high schoolers with Open School's Step Up program in Portland. I have experience facilitating creative art projects and cooking projects, and helping kids become independent in several areas, including getting dressed, putting on shoes, and toilet training. I enjoy letting Read more the children set the tone for the day, what activities we do, and where we go. I strive to bring humor, patience, and compassion into every interaction I have with children. I have a Master of Fine Arts degree in creative writing and I'm looking for part time or occasional nanny jobs that will allow me to write in my free time. I have a valid driver's license, but I don't currently have my own vehicle.
