Experience: 10 yrs
With over 17 years of experience caring for children of all ages, including newborns and premature babies, I bring a nurturing, dependable, and highly organized presence to every family I support. As a mother of a school-aged child myself, I understand firsthand the importance of creating a safe, loving, and stimulating environment that adapts to each child's unique needs and personality. I take joy in supporting little ones as they reach their developmental milestones, using a warm and engaging approach filled with energy, creativity, and respect. I am also certified in CPR and First Aid, ensuring your child's safety is always a top priority.
What to even say about the absolutely wonderful Jo? Jo has given exceptional care to our now 5.5 month old baby girl that exceeds expectations in every way. She is caring, warm, professional, and experienced, and our baby lights up every day when she arrives in the morning. Jo makes sure that our baby is hitting all her milestones (tummy time, rolling over, sitting up), constantly engages her with singing and chit chat and play, takes her on walks and to do activities, and even thoughtfully and graciously brings her books and little toys. She is so engaging and compassionate and is genuinely a lovely presence who is also so helpful to me and my husband as new parents -- she thoughtfully manages baby-related household tasks and is also a calm and reassuring wealth of information. We will be so sad to say goodbye to her when the time comes (we are moving, otherwise we wouldn't be!) and couldn't recommend her more strongly.
