A little bit about me

My experience includes my own 3 children that are now 24, 16, and 12. I have also always cared for my grandson that is almost 4. I have also had the son of a family I knew placed in my care by the state if Missouri for 6 months while his parents resolved some legal issues. Throughout this time there has also been all the children around the neighborhoods we lived in that seem to flock to our home. I have first aid training and on the 25th of this month will have complete mental first aid training. I believe birth to 5 years is telling most impressionable time in a child's life and also when their personality is formed. They are sponges and absorb everything around them. For this reason I hate to see them left to vibrating chairs, t.v., or computers for entertainment when there is so much in the world they should be seeing and enjoying.

A little bit about me

Hi! I am Giovanna Jackson. I have been taking care of children since I was a child due to having over 20 nieces and nephews. I furthered my experience working in my church nursery from the age of 16 to now and I worked at Children’s Mercy with kids ages newborn to 21. I love children! They are so pure and innocent. I am currently taking prerequisite classes for Graceland University’s Nursing Program and I recently got married to my high school sweetheart in September of 2022. Everything I do, I do with care and grace and I always try my best to make sure everybody is safe and happy. I put my all into anything I do. I would love to be matched with the right family for me! Thank you.
