A little bit about me

Hey! My name is Hailey! I grew up in Ankeny until I was 10 and then my family moved to Cedar Falls! I grew up as a competitive cheerleader for 10 years and then I got to cheer my freshman year at ISU! I currently am a junior at ISU majoring in elementary education with endorsements in special education and reading. I first realized that I wanted to be a teacher at the ISU cheer clinic when I feel in love with helping kids to grow and succeed. Since then I have gotten my substitute license in 2024 (I have had the opportunity to substitute in Gilbert school district ) and worked at an after school program in Ames. Along with that I have gotten to experience being in several classrooms as a part of my ISU education. Over this time I have cherished the opportunity to connect with several different kids and truly learn from them as they help me become a better person! I can do this by creating a safe and caring environment for all kids!

A little bit about me

I'm Jenavieve Jackson, a 20-year-old artist and caretaker. I just moved back to Iowa. I love arts and crafts, cooking, and keeping things tidy. I love to go out and enjoy nature & fresh air, so I'll be more than happy to take the kiddos out to their favorite places! I can cook several types of cuisines, including vegan or vegetarian. I play instruments, play some basketball, and love to sing and have fun. Times have been tough with the pandemic where school is concerned, and I'm able to help navigate zoom and help with homework. Math is my favorite subject. :) Let me know if you need any errands done, homework help, or any meals prepared.
