About Jodi

Hello! I'm a longtime childcare professional with 25 years of experience supporting children from infancy through early childhood. I graduated from St. Cloud State University with a degree in Early Childhood Education, and I've spent my career helping little ones learn, grow, and feel safe. For 20 years, I worked as a preschool teacher at Kinderberry Hill, where I supported children with a wide range of developmental needs and learning styles. For the past two years, I've been at a Montessori school working closely with infants, focusing on gentle routines, early sensory learning, and responsive caregiving. As a mother of two teenagers, I bring both professional expertise and practical parenting experience. Families describe me as dependable, calm under pressure, and highly attuned to each child's unique personality. I'd love to support a family looking for an experienced caregiver who values communication, structure, and joyful learning.
