A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Jordan, I’m 22 years old and I’m looking for the perfect family to collaborate and team up with to provide responsible and supportive child care as well as household duties and / or carpool to the best of my ability ! I previously worked in a daycare center with ages 1 month - 5 years old . This experience gave me insight as to how children need to be cared for and listened to , as I am now hoping to pursue a career with children . This past summer into school year I had the pleasure of nannying two twin 9-year old boys, focusing on remote learning and outdoor activities! I recently moved to this area, leaving me without any children to care after which has me eager as ever to start fresh!

A little bit about me

With over four years of experience in childcare, I have had the privilege of working with a diverse group of children, including those in special education, nonverbal children, and those with autism, as well as general education students. My role as a paraprofessional in schools has equipped me with a deep understanding of the unique needs of each child.

I am highly skilled in providing essential care tasks such as toileting and meal preparation, always ensuring that each child's safety and well-being are my top priorities. I am committed to creating a nurturing and supportive environment where every child feels valued and understood. My passion for childcare goes beyond just the basics—I genuinely care about the emotional and developmental growth of the children I work with. Ensuring their safety, promoting their independence, and supporting their learning are central to my approach.
