A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Shawanna Jefferson. I am an early childhood educator; however I am excited to pursue a career as a full time nanny. I have a passion for caring for children and watching and guiding their growth. I am ready to take my skills to a family, where I’d be able to engage with children in a more intimate and family oriented setting. I am prepared to support a family in their daily lives through child care, home support, and building genuine relationships. Being a part time nanny in addition to being in the classroom and being a hands on Aunt has led me to understand that the next stop on my child care journey is having a career as a nanny.

A little bit about me

I have been babysitting kids since I was a kid. My first babysitting job (well role) was when I was like 9 of course I had supervision but I would clothe and change their diapers and play with them. I've always loved babies and that's why I got a job. Which is a highly recommended day care in my area. I worked in the nursery and did ages 2-5. I would offend get recommended to do weekend babysitting for some of he parents.

Side note: I have my own car!

"She was so patient with the kids (they tend to be a little nuts here or there) and she always went the extra mile for me on her own time. She was dependable, super tidy and stern with my kids. She was also kind, a sweetheart and performed as if there were her own kids. She was truly a gem to have."
