A little bit about me

I have 3+ years of childcare experience, grew up in a household of 5 siblings (im the 2nd oldest), and was taught at a young age how to properly take care of kids. I've been told I am mature for my age, because I started at 12 years old! In San Francisco, throughout college and post-grad I would babysit my neighbors kids while effectively juggling my workload. I grew to form strong relationships with the families I served, and they would ask me back to help out over the years. Now in NYC, I would like to return to that form of service, as I was innately called to it and have a passion for helping out with kids!

A little bit about me

Hey! My name is Jo. I am 20 years old, currently on a gap year after finishing a two year college. I have spent a lot of time taking care of my younger cousin, and the majority of my job experience is in 24/7 animal husbandry, so while I have no experience in childcare jobs, I love taking care of children, and I have a lot of experience taking intensive care of other living things. I love reading, animals, art, music, and most types of adventures.
