About Jessica

Experience: 10 yrs

With over 11 years of experience and a college degree, I am a Certified Direct Support Professional (DSP) and Certified Qualified Intellectual Disabilities Professional (QIDP) specializing in high-quality childcare. I have extensive experience supporting children with intellectual and developmental disabilities, focusing on person-centered advocacy, medical management, and behavioral support. I prioritize building trust and ensuring every child feels safe, respected, and empowered through compassionate, expert care. I am highly adaptable to changing routines and skilled at de-escalating stressful situations with a calm, patient demeanor. My support includes meal preparation, light housekeeping, and reliable transportation for school and activities. I maintain current CPR and First Aid certifications, am comfortable with pets, and provide clear, consistent communication to parents for total peace of mind. Professional references are available upon request.
