A little bit about me

Hello! I'm Jasmine, and I am a recent Psychology graduate from Western Washington University, with an emphasis on child psychological development. I have a strong passion for helping children achieve their goals, and would love to work in your household!

I spent six months working at daycare centers partnered with The Boys and Girls Club of Whatcom County, with a majority of my experience being working with infants aged four to twelve months. I helped my co-teacher develop lesson plans for our classroom, and frequently subbed in for my coworkers in their toddler, preschool, and school-age classrooms.
