Hi there! I'm Jessica and I am 26 years old. I'm a Special Education teacher and I just recently returned to the PA/NJ area. Educational History: I have a Master's Degree in Education and a Bachelor's Degree in Applied Developmental Psychology. I have my PA teaching certifications for Pre-K to 4th Grade as well as Special Education grades K-8. I'm also certified in the state of North Carolina. I've been a paid caregiver for over 10 years and have experience working with children of all ages. I've been a summer nanny for six consecutive years, worked at the University of Pittsburgh affiliated daycare, have 3 yrs of teaching experience (5 if you include student teaching), I volunteered with Big Brothers Big Sisters, and so much more. Currently looking for part-time, as-needed, occasional babysitting gigs as I enjoy my summer off from teaching. I am a non-smoker and am fully vaccinated.
