A little bit about me

Hello! I'm the oldest daughter of six kids, so I've always had a natural love for kids and a lot of hands-on experience caring for them. I earned my Associate's Degree in Communications from SLCC, which has helped me develop strong communication skills that are essential in my role as a nanny. In my free time, I enjoy practicing yoga, exploring fashion, and baking—activities that keep me balanced and creative!

A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Jillian and I would love to work with your family.
I bring with me over six years of experience and an adolescence of growing up in a daycare run by my family. I have worked as a full time nanny, an arts class instructor, a creative writing class apprentice, and most recently a lead preschool teacher.
Passionately creative, I bring my love for the arts into all my work with kids. I believe in the celebration of difference and teaching kindness through patience and exploration.
In the different environments I have been part of, I have had the privilege to work with many different families. In each experience, I worked to foster a safe and loving environment, and have worked closely with guardians to ensure I carefully followed instructions regarding schedules, chores, discipline, and free time. I have experience working with children with different needs, exercising skills in patience, attention to detail, and de-escalation.
