Jordan San Luis Obispo
$25 per hour for 1 child

Hi Families! My name is Jordan and I have a Bachelor's in Child Development from Cal Poly SLO! I have lots of experience working with all kinds of children of different ages, needs, and abilities. I have worked part-time at 1 day care and 2 private preschools in San Luis Obispo as a teacher, with children ages where I worked with 4 months-4-years-old. I am currently working as a student teacher for Cal Poly SLO’s Multiple Subject credential program, as well as babysitting/nannying, face painting, and tutoring! I love the water and know how important it is for children to connect with the outside and how to stay safe. I love making and teaching different crafts and hobbies like painting, jewelry making, etc. I am very creative and love to show kids how great expressing yourself through art can be. I involve problem solving, behavior development, and vocabulary enrichment into my work! I also have a good understanding of the different needs and developmental stages some children are at and that every child is unique. I can adjust to any environment and can be a nurturing but also assertive nanny/babysitter. I am certified in CPR, lifeguard safety in AED and first aid, and pest management around children. I am also a California Child Abuse Mandated Reporter. Feel free to reach out! I have a packed resume, and I really, really love working and connecting with kids! Please message me and I can give you my contact information! Thank you!
