About Jalale

I was born and raised in Ethiopia. U of MN college graduate 2011. I believe kids need to be out in the world. I love taking children on adventures -- the park, swimming, Chuck E. Cheese, nature walks, whatever sparks their curiosity. I believe in structure because children thrive on consistency, but I also believe childhood should be joyful and fun. I am a great cook, an avid reader and writer, and I love passing that love of stories and creativity on to the kids I care for. I have a brand new car, a spotless driving record, and a clean background. Safety is a priority -- I am CPR and First Aid certified through a MN CCAP-approved program (certified May 16, 2026), and I have a Child Safety class scheduled for June 18th , also CCAP-approved. I have a niece on the way and my world is full of children I love. I am ready to welcome your family into that circle. If you are looking for someone experienced, passionate, certified, and genuinely excited to do this work every day.
