Hi! My name is Jayden, and I’m a dedicated childcare professional graduating this spring with my Bachelors of Science in Psychology at Mercy University. I will be attending Seton Hall University for my Masters of Arts in School Counseling, this Fall. I’ve always been passionate about child development, and my academic background in Social & Behavioral Sciences, along with hands-on experience across a range of educational and therapeutic settings, allows me to support children’s unique needs in a nurturing, engaging, and safe environment. Over the years, I’ve worked with children of all ages—from Pre-K through middle school—in a variety of roles. I currently serve as a Teacher’s Aide for children in grades 3-5 in the Scarsdale School District, specifically in a special education ABA setting within a public elementary school, and I also have worked part-time as an ABA Behavioral Technician, where I support children on the autism spectrum with Read more individualized behavior and communication plans. My previous experience includes roles in special education classrooms, after-school childcare programs, day camps, and mental health internship settings. I’m certified in Autism Education, Nonviolent Crisis Intervention, and Pediatric CPR/First Aid through Heartsaver. Whether I’m leading an arts and crafts activity, supporting emotional regulation, or helping with homework and daily routines, I approach every interaction with patience, empathy, and positivity. I’m particularly experienced in working with children who have IEPs or behavior intervention plans, and I believe in building trust with both kids and parents to ensure the best care possible. I bring structure, creativity, and a deep respect for each child’s individuality. If you’re looking for someone reliable, experienced, and genuinely passionate about kids, I’d love to meet your family!

What a pleasure it was meeting Jayden and working with him! He was super communicative/responsive/generous throughout the hiring process, even when I requested an interview and references! He was very responsible (arrived 45 minutes early and stayed an hour late!). We were coming in from out of town for a wedding, and Jayden jumped right into the fray with my infant (5 week old), 2.5 year old and almost four year old. He was there with my parents; sometimes caregivers in this situation do not know how to be helpful and just sit around waiting to be told what to do- not Jayden! He was warm, friendly, took initiative, took suggestions well, and stepped up effortlessly when my kiddos were having trouble following directions. He changed diapers, played well, and helped with meal prep/clean up. We look forward to working with him again soon!
