Meet Jessica
- Comfortable with pets
I have 24 years of professional childcare and early childhood education experience. I am truly passionate about protecting, guiding, and nurturing children. As the oldest of 6 siblings, I assisted my mother in caring for my younger siblings. I often cared for up to 5 younger cousins at a time in addition to my younger siblings. My first professional babysitting position was when I was 14 years old. My first nanny position was from ages 17-19, it was a live in position. I implement a love of music, arts and crafts, and outdoor play in my caregiving approach. I am honest, responsible, warm, and patient. I regularly recertify in both CPR and first aid. I am pursuing my goal of entering law school, I intend to become a family law attorney.

Jess is the best! She has cared for our kid on and off from the time he was 7 months to the present - he's now 10 years old. Jess is reliable, punctual, and takes this works seriously.

Jessica was a caregiver for my two young boys a 2 year old and a 7 month old. I highly recommend her since she was responsible, reliable, trustworthy and my boys loved her. Out of all the sitters I had, Jessica was the best. When I left for work, I knew my boys were in good hands and they always had a blast with her. She is also a very loving and a kind person. Always came on time, met our needs and she read to my boys a lot. She was a great fit for us when our family was in transition.
