Hello! I am a special education paraeducator in the Iowa City School District! I have worked with kids from ages 3-12 in my 4 years of childcare experience and have loved every chance I got to meet all my new students. I'm new to Iowa City but I love to explore new hiking trails and checking out all the local shops the city has to offer. In my free time I also practice learning ASL. I know a bit, but I'd like to expand on that to help accommodate children who utilize it. However, my biggest passion is working with children. Especially children with special needs, they are such incredible children who need extra support, with that they can achieve so much! I have a big heart, lots of patience and have loved every one of my students as if they were my own. I have plans to one day have my own classroom so I can continue to make an impact in the lives of children. Thank you for reading! If you have any questions, please feel free to message me!

Jennifer was a fantastic caregiver for our child. She was always on time, engaged our kid in lots of different activities and was always very kind and communicative. Our daughter keeps asking when she is coming back and we will definitely hire her again!
