About Jamia

Experience: 7 yrs

Hello! I'm excited for the opportunity to support your family this fall. I'm a school-based therapist and postpartum doula with advanced degrees in Psychology and Counseling, along with specialized certifications and CE training. I've worked in a pediatric hospital setting supporting infants in critical care, which deepened my understanding of early infancy needs. In K-12 schools, I've supported children's social-emotional and behavioral growth. As a postpartum doula, I'm also attuned to the needs of the whole family unit. I've always been a "mother's helper" at heart, and now as a nanny, I love creating enriching, hands-on experiences. Whether through crafts, nature walks, or creative play. My goal is to provide a safe, nurturing environment where children can grow, explore, and thrive. I'm most consistently available for after-school care and weekends. I'd love to learn more about your family's needs and how I can help. Looking forward to connecting!
