Hi, my name is Jasmine. Read a little about me below: I have 14 years of baby sitting/nannying experience (2008-2018). Additionally, in 2015 I started working at a elementary charter school in Brooklyn, NY called Brooklyn Prospect. I’ve had the honor of moving up the scale through a number of promotions. Unfortunately, 2021 was my last year working with my BPCS family as I became pregnant and wanted to take some personal time to enjoy my pregnancy. Much of my childcare career has surrounding around caring for children starting from infancy to 13. Working with children has been my passion as you can see for years. Having engaging interactions, playing, discussing interest and overall getting to know the young ones is a joy that keeps me going. My interest? I have lots of them but my ultimate favorite is dancing so I’m always down for a dance party. I love to be active and run. Want to play basketball, soccer.. I’m so down!!
