Reliable Nanny 6+ years Experience
| Hi family!! I understand that the early years of a child's life are vital as stepping stones to a successful future. Because of this, I work hard to provide them with varied and stimulating activities that will promote their learning and development. My childcare experience expands across all age groups, including special needs and infants. As a nanny/carer with 6+ years experience, I always try to prioritize loving, healthy personal relationships with all children and adults alike while maintaining a dependable, organized and professional manner. Though my work I'm dedicated to helping shape children into confident, self-aware, intelligent and happy people who will carry those traits into adulthood. I really do find such joy in being a positive mentor in a child's life. I'm so excited to meet your family, and hope to create a positive lasting impact!
My son absolutely loved her, sometimes I would think he liked her more than me!! If I could describe her in a few words, I would say she's very gentle and calm in her approach."

Childcare worker with 7 years experience
| Hello! My name is JoJo and I'm a caregiver with 7+ years professional experience within the childcare industry! I'm incredibly experienced when it comes to working with youths! During high school I worked as a counselor at two summer camps for young children. Throughout college I expanded into babysitting, and ended up providing consistent care for two children beginning at ages 5 and 7, and going until the kids were 9 and 11. During this time I also worked in a local afterschool program teaching kids between kindergarten and 5th grade how to read, write, and do math. After graduating from college I worked for a year as a kindergarten instructor as part of an afterschool program for children with special needs. When working with kids I love to play boardgames, walk in nature, be active (I played soccer for over 10 years!), do arts and crafts, cook fun meals, read, and generally be silly! I'm ideally looking for a longer-term babysitting job with a family though I am also open to doing single gigs! I'm super flexible on time and can work around pretty much any schedule. I look forward to meeting you and your child!
What an absolute delight! My 7 year old was thrilled to spend quality time with Jojo. She found common interests and was very attentive. A great success. I highly recommend Jojo."
