"Rose was so sweet with our son. She came in and really embraced him and we could see how much they loved to play together. Rose fit right in and understood our family, learned how we operated and made efforts to make us as parents feel valued and heard. She accommodated our changing schedules, looked after and snuggled our sweet pups, and overall one of the most genuine humans in life. We appreciated our time together and know she’ll be a great addition to a lucky family."

A little bit about me

Hi families! My name is Jennessa Jackson, I have been in the childcare field for about 4 years now going on 5. I am 19 years old, a college student at Portland State University studying Child, Youth, & Family Studies hoping to be an Occupational Therapist one day or an Early Childhood Educator. I have experience by being a nanny for a family in NE Portland for two girls ages 6 and 9, since they were 2 and 5. While doing that, I was in High School completing Sabin-Schellenberg’s Technical Center - Child Development Program. I did this all four years. The first year was a more textbook informed study, second year was hands on with kids aged 3-5. The third year consisted of me in Mt.Scott Elementary School working as a Kindergarten Aide, and the last year was a practicum level 2 for child & family services working as a Kindergarten Aide as well. I just recently worked at a Daycare in Portland working with kids aged 1-5 , but had to be cut short because of an unexpected family emergency.
