A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Jackie Knebl. I am an educator with a license to teach birth to sixth grade. Babysitting was my first job and I have continued to work with children since. I worked in a daycare for 3 years in an infant classroom. I worked with 8 infants ages 2-12 months at a time. I focused on providing developmentally appropriate learning experiences for infants like art, movement, and nature. I then worked as 6th grade science teacher. I developed and executed hands-on learning opportunities for my students. I just moved to Chicago and I am excited to continue my career working with children!
