I baby set children when I was a teen. I am a mother of a 23 and a 16 year old. I have volunteered in their classrooms throughout elementary school. I also have volunteered at the AWANA boys and girls clubs in Atascadero and Los Osos for children ages from 3 to 11 years of age for approximately 12 years.

I was born in Australia and worked as a nanny in England before coming to the US 30 years ago. I have three adult children (29, 25 AND 20) and I miss having young children around. I love reading children books and putting on the voices of the characters. I spent many years in the Music Together program with my own children and appreciate the importance of music in children's lives. In my free time I enjoy traveling, podcasts, reading, working out at the gym, yoga, hiking and numerous card and board games. am based in Arizona but I escape the summer heat in the summer and love being by the ocean on the Central Coast.

As a member of a large family with three kids of my own, I'm no stranger to the challenges and joys of child care and the multi-tasking required to keep things running smoothly in the day to day! I'm a team player with a focus on supporting parents in their role as guide and caregiver while fostering emotional intelligence, generosity, collaboration and imagination in children. I was a stay at home mom for many years before re-joining the workforce, and have a deep appreciation for the skills required to juggle all the hats of busy parents! From meal prep to household chores while keeping things fun and playful, I can cultivate meaningful experiences for kids that speak to their innate sense of wonder and encourage their eagerness to soak up their environments in enriching ways. We live, laugh and learn when we experience life together!

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!
