A little bit about me

Hi! I am an enthusiastic college student going for Nursing at Purdue! I believe my patience, creativity, and strong understanding of child development make me a good nanny! I'm also adaptable and can effectively communicate with both children and parents. I grew up in a household of 6 kids altogether (I am the oldest!) so I have always been the babysitter! :)

A little bit about me

Hello!
I am Jenna Shoults, a sophomore at Purdue University studying Elementary Education. I have worked with many age groups of children in many different settings and have developed a passion for interacting with children over the years. Some of these settings include being placed in Elementary Schools through Purdue, various childcare jobs like summer camps, babysitting, and daycares! An important thing to note about me is that I value the needs and well being of not only children, but their families as well! I am always willing to help whenever and however I can and I am excited to do just that for any family that believes I would be an efficient fit!
