A little bit about me

Hi, I’m Jesse! I am 33, and started babysitting when I was 12. I worked at multiple summer camps as a teenager and young adult, at 18 I was an assistant preschool teacher, at 21 I was a character actress for kids parties and big events and at 25 I became a nanny. I nannied a newborn that I stayed with till she was almost 2, and for a few families with elementary school age kids over the summers. I do have visibly slightly-alternative style that might throw some parents off but I am a kind and responsible person with a heart for children and vast teaching experience . Ive been through early childhood education courses and I have an 11 year old step child of my own who lives with my partner and I every other week. I love to sing and play, I am gentle, kind and fun and I understand (in a big way) children who are different than others. My rapport with kids is natural and easy, I always seem to make buds when kids are around!

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

Chatting, playing pretend, singing, drawing, arts and crafts, video games and movies, building forts, helping with homework, silly voices, characters and making up jokes, going for walks and talking about nature, swimming, running in sprinklers, hopscotch and chalk! I think it’s so important to be excited and enthusiastic about what children are doing, playing, or going through and I love to be someone who can cheer a child up by being attuned to what they need.

The most important part about being a nanny...

I think the most important thing is being able to acclimate to the way a family lives and understand how they function so you can be the biggest help possible to them rather than coming in and interrupting their flow and the vibe of their home.

My experience with special needs children...

I have babysat many children who are on the spectrum, and my stepchild has autism as well. Being neurodivergent myself, I really feel I have a way with neurodivergent children as I have a lot of empathy for my undiagnosed child self who didn’t have language or support for how hard life was. If I can’t go back and provide those tools for myself I want to help provide them for anyone else I can.

The most important part about being a nanny...

The first time I heard my nanny child’s belly laugh. And her first steps and her first words. Thinking about it makes me want to cry! It’s an incredible experience to watch a child grow and learn and know you were a part of that!
