Hi! My name is Jenna, and I am currently enrolled at WGU, where I am completing my teaching credential in Special Education. I am primarily offering childcare services and truly enjoy creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where children can learn, grow, and be themselves.
I have over 7 years of childcare experience as a nanny, behavioral therapy manager, and school aide. Throughout my career, I have worked with infants, toddlers, school-aged children, and young adults, including individuals with special needs. One of my favorite parts of working with children is watching them gain confidence, discover new interests, and reach milestones. It's incredibly rewarding to be someone who can support and encourage their growth every step of the way.
In previous roles, I have provided light cooking, meal preparation, interactive play that encourages learning and development, tutoring, arts and crafts, and transportation to and from activities. I am also happy to help with light housekeeping to make life a little easier for busy families.
I am comfortable working in homes with cats and dogs and would be happy to assist with pet care as an additional responsibility.
Your child's safety is always my top priority. I am certified in First Aid, CPR, and AED, so you can have peace of mind knowing your child is in capable and caring hands.
I would love the opportunity to get to know your family and provide reliable, compassionate care while helping your child learn, explore, and have fun every day.
“Jenna has been working with my 12-yo autistic son for almost 2 yrs now. We initially met her as an ABA therapist. We liked working with her so much. After she quit that job, we have decided to hire her to continue working with our son but this time to help tutor my son on a regular basis. She is very loving and patient with him. Her background in ABA is very useful as she tries to get our son engaged in his academics. Since we started doing this, our son’s attention span for school work (non-preferred activity) has dramatically increased. My son now enjoys reading and doing math with us! She also comes over to sometimes just help babysit. They would play games or go to the pool. I love that she makes sure that Alex is engaged. ! I would highly recommend Jenna!”
