A little bit about me

As a freshman in high school I began babysitting on my own and have since taken on a vast amount of consistent babysitting jobs. My first childcare job was at a childcare center focused on a play based/Reggio learning style, where I gained experience in planning activities and lessons aligned with the Montessori/Reggio curriculum. I’m currently working as a Kindergarten teacher assistant and has experience teaching children how to write and read.
I have experience with all ages, including newborns. I’m experienced with household tasks and love to cook. I enjoy getting out of the house and exploring when taking care of children, I have a gentle approach to caretaking and am engaging, flexible, and good at communicating. I’m pet friendly to all types of animals and open to occasional overnight and weekend hours. Childcare is my passion and I hope to find a long term family to nanny for!

More About Me

Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...

My first job was at a reggio/montessori style childcare center where I worked for two years. I was both a teacher assistant and lead teacher at this time and assisted with supervising students, keeping the classroom clean, adhering to the daily schedule, and planning activities that were hands on and enriching. At the center I worked with ages from newborn to grade school age.

Currently I work as a kindergarten teacher assistant where I assist in supervising the students and ensuring the daily schedule is followed. I also assist with small group planning and teach small group lessons that are engaging and hands on.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

One of my favorite things in childcare is to get the kids out of the house, I enjoy taking walks to the park and playing in water on hot days with the kids. If the weather is nice I enjoy having picnics for lunch time.

On rainy days I like to find activities that keep the kids engaged and allows them to explore creatively. A great activity is loose parts play, finding different items such as pipe cleaners and buttons and letting the children use their imagination is where the magic happens!

The most important part about being a nanny...

The most important part about being a nanny is paying attention to the child! Typically, children will tell you exactly what they need or want but it might not always be through words. Watching how the child interacts with the world and making note of changes in behavior can help you adjust throughout the day to help them have the best day they can.

The most important part about being a nanny...

My favorite nanny moments happen when a child you’ve been working with for some time shows what they’ve learned by putting it into action. Weather it’s through cleaning without being asked to or offering to be another child’s friend.

Jessica N. - Seeking Work in Charleston

Babysitter Available in Charleston, SC: Jessica N.

Hi! I’m a licensed pediatric occupational therapist with over a decade of experience in childcare, ranging from owning and operating an in-home daycare to teaching preschool to working with kids with complex medical needs. I’m also a mother to my 16 year old daughter. I absolutely love building relationships with kids and families and think that choosing childcare providers is one of the most important decisions you can make as a parent. I recently left my OT job to pursue a dream of opening a small business. While I’m making that happen, I have a pretty flexible open schedule and would love to find a great family (or families for a nanny share) to work with. I’m located on Daniel island but would travel anywhere in the Charleston area.
