About Jessica

Hi. My name is Jess and I graduated from UMF with a bachelors degree in Early Childhood Special Education. During my time in school, I have worked in various settings such as the Infant/Toddler and preschool room for as a substitute. For one summer, in my first year of college I worked full time during the summer with 3 children Monday through Friday 8-4. My brother also has Down Syndrome and I have been helping care for him since I was old enough to do so. I started babysitting in middle school for a set of twins (8 months) and have babysat for various families over the years. I have experience with children with special needs and for two summers worked as para-professional for an extended school year program. I am very comfortable with children of all ages.
