Hi my name is Jenn De Shaw, I am CPR and First Aid certified for infants, children and adults. I am a full time Preschool teacher and a college student working to finish my bachelor’s degree in early childhood development. I have been working with children in one capacity or another for over 20 years. I have taught in preschool and Sunday school settings, babysat, and run the childcare for a number of non-profit events and organizations. I left my job as a lead toddler and two's teacher at a well-known day care after seven years to focus on school. I have experience working with newborn babies through preteens. I love working with children of all ages, watching them grow and being a part of those 'a-ha!'moments. Every age offers something new and unique. I love helping the younger ones grow, learn new skills and explore this amazing world that Read more we live in. With older children it is so much fun to play games, make believe, and help them as they explore and learn about the more intricate things in life. I look forward to speaking with you about your needs soon!
