A little bit about me
Hello families! My name is Ms. Jordin I am 26 years old. I was born and raised in Chicago,IL. I attended the Illinois Institute of Art to study my passion for fashion. I am currently a preschool teacher at The Gardner School. My childcare experience in both in-home and center-based daycare establishments has given me a broad background in the developmental levels of infants, toddlers, and preschoolers. The energy and sweet innocence of children & looks of amazement I see on young children when they are interacting in my classroom has kept me working in childcare for the past 5 years. I am very passionate about early education and I believe children learn best through play, exploration, and repetition. Due to my skills in engaging children, creating fun activities, and building relationships with parents I would be a perfect fit for your team. Based on my experience I am confident that my skills will benefit your family immensely.
