Booked by 1 family in Marion, TX

Hi! I'm Jo, a college student at Texas State University majoring in Photography, and I have a true passion for working with kids. I have two years of experience as a daycare worker for children as young as 3 months at Stephen G. Terrell Recreation Center, caring for children of various ages, and I'm certified in both CPR and Red Cross Babysitting. I'm responsible, creative, and love keeping kids engaged with fun activities while ensuring their safety and well-being. I'd love the opportunity to bring my energy and care to your family!

Jo is such a sweet girl! My one year old loved her since she arrived, he was in good hands the whole time and they had fun playing.
