A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Jaidyn, but you can call me Jaid! I’m an experienced childcare provider with a strong background in working with children of all ages, including those with special needs. I’ve always had a natural connection with kids, and I truly love what I do. I feel as though there is nothing more rewarding to me than being a steady, supportive presence in a child’s life, whether this is with helping them grow, learn, or feel safe every day.

I bring a calm, grounded energy into the homes I work in, which i feel helps kids feel comfortable around me quickly. Whether it’s easing a toddler through a tantrum or creating a sensory-friendly environment for a child with autism, I pride myself on being patient, intuitive, and compassionate in how I care!

Meredith W. - Seeking Work in Brooklyn

A little bit about me

My name is Meredith. I grew up in Pennsylvania and moved to New York in 2022. I recently exited the classroom, where I was a general education teacher and an interventionist. I believe in a hands-on, screen-free approach with active time to learn and explore. Those times would be doing crafts, science experiments, walks around the area, or even cooking together. One of my passions is quality children’s literature and I believe there should be time each day set aside for reading.

I have no food or pet related allergies and welcome families with pets. I have my own car, so transportation is not an issue. I would be open to predetermined housework and errands.

In terms of credentials, I have a few different ones including PDE FBI, CY 113, PPS 164, Act 126, and NSOR. I am also renewing my CPR/First Aid certification, and already have training in EpiPens. I would be happy to renew any clearances if they have lapsed.

I hope to hear from you soon!
