A little bit about me

Hi!
My name is Jordan, I am 24 and located in Tacoma. I grew up in an in-home daycare that my mother made, so childcare has been very near and dear to me my whole life. I truly believe in the magic of molding a child. I am currently in school online finishing my degree in psychology with a minor in early childhood education. I am CPR, first aid, and CNA (certified nurse’s assistant) certified.
