About Jessica

Hi! I have 20 yrs experience as a nanny and with special needs children (both autism and cerebral palsy). I've worked for families with up to 5 children of all ages, infant to teenager. I've not worked for a family less than 2 years, and maximum was 9 years with one family. I'm comfortable with housework, laundry, meals, homework, overnight, pets etc. I adore children and am great at multitasking. One thing is, I don't yell. We always discuss behavior if there is a problem. I find this works better, because children's feelings are just as valid as our own. I'm inclined towards art (my major in college), nature, reading, music. I enjoy one on one interaction more than a daycare setting. TV can be relaxing for kids, but by no means a babysitter, so I keep it minimal. Homework is done after school, parents can expect as much as possible to be done when they get home. I'm a non-smoker with my own vehicle. I'd love to find a family to grow with and care for long term. Hope to hear from you!
