A little bit about me
I'm Jess, I'm a licensed professional counselor who has been working with kids and families in West Philly for the last ten years as a nanny, school counselor, and family therapist. I've enjoyed supporting kids and families in their growth, having the opportunity to play, and the sweetness that spending time with children brings to my life. It is one of the greatest honors of my life to be a part of the emotional lives of children and families and shape them as my experiences with them shape me. I've enjoyed my roles as consultant, collaborator, and companion in the families I've worked with in the past and am interested in working with a family who values clear communication, gentleness, compassion, mutual respect, and playfulness.
In my free time I love to cook, travel, spend time outdoors, host big parties for my chosen family, volunteer for an herbal medicine mutual aid project, and sing made up songs to my cat.

"Jess cared for our kiddo from the time kiddo was 5 months old, until she was just about 18 months. The only reason our engagement ended was Covid, when the nanny share we were in dissolved due to lockdown.
Jess is very caring and calm, and it truly helped me as a new parent, to be able to hand my child off each workday morning knowing that she would be looking after my child. Jess always made sure to give us feedback from the day, which was super helpful, especially as we were navigating the change from bottles to solid food. My kiddo loved spending time with Jess (and her nanny share buddy).
Engagement and outdoor play is important, and Jess always made sure that both kids in the Nanny share had plenty of both.
Without hesitation, we recommend Jess to any parent seeking not just a caregiver, but a partner in nurturing their child's growth. If we ever decided to have another child there's no doubt in our minds – Jess would be our nanny in a heartbeat."

"She is very sweet, caring, attentive and understanding. She took care of my kids like they were her own. She played with them. She talked to them. She listened to them. She cooked for them and she can cook. She was like a second mother to my children I had to move and if I could take her with me, I would’ve. She helped me become more understanding as a mother. If you do hire her just know that you are going to get the best out of her. She gives her all. My kids and I are going to miss her. Thank you, Takiyah."

A little bit about me
My name is Trina and I have been a teacher and nanny for the past 7 years. I graduated from UW-Madison with a Bachelor's degree in Psychology, with a focus on Child Development. I moved to NYC in 2018 to continue my teaching career as a nonprofit educator. I worked with children from K-12 in all 5 boroughs, many with special needs. I then started working for Brooklyn Heights Synagogue preschool as a teacher for 3 years, including during the pandemic. I have babysat and taught children of all ages and abilities and feel very confident in my ability to provide a safe, child-centered, nurturing environment for every child. I have a warm, grounding energy that helps children feel at ease. I hope to pursue a Master's in special education or social work, but currently in my spare time, I read, do yoga, cook and play music. I always try to incorporate these interests and passions into my work and care with children. Can't wait to hear from you!
