About Jessica

Hello! My name is Jessica. Caring for others has always been my passion which is why I have a degree in social work. I have worked with a variety of populations throughout my life. I have been babysitting on and off since I was 15. I love kids and enjoy providing a safe and fun environment for them! I have been working with adults with special needs since high school as well. In college I was a member of Best Buddies in which I was paired with an individual with special needs to provide companionship. I also worked at an organization called Looking Upwards in which I provided direct support to those with special needs. I had two internships in college in which I worked with the homeless and teenage boys who had offended the law. After college I worked at a mental health hospital called North Star Behavioral Health in which I cared for teenage girls (many of which were suicidal). I revisited working with adults with special needs at an organization called Life.
