Jessica S., Child Care in Tamaqua, PA 18252 with 6 years of paid experience

I lived in Florida from 2015-2020 I am originally from PA and we returned back here in 2020; I graduated with three degrees all in a science related field back in 2015. I started babysitting mostly my sister starting when I was about twelve and she was five. Once I started college I worked in a childcare center for about a year, I worked with children aged 6 months to 12 years of age. I love working with children because they are always on the go and exploring the world around them, it is a joy watching them learn and grow. Once my husband and I moved to Florida I started to nanny for a family of 5 they had twin girls age 2 and a son age 8, whom I still babysit for on occasion, especially when they go out of town. Since I have been in Florida I have babysat for multiple families on multiple occasions. The number of children I have watched at any given time ranges from 1-4 with ages between 2-13 as well as several with autism and/or ADHD. I have adapted to each situation and the same few families request my help on a regular basis. Each and every child needs attention, patience, and kindness. I do arts and crafts and read with the children as well as play with them whether that be, outdoors, video games, Legos, or board games. I do have previous first aid and CPR experience as well as a clean driving record and background check.

I remember being 14 babysitting my cousins and it was always fun. I wanted my career to be in childcare. When I graduated high school I went to college and received my associate degree in Childhood Education. Unfortunately I am not able to have my own children which gives me more time and is more rewarding to help many. Meaning all my attention is on them
