Hello! I'm Jenna, a certified substitute teacher and paraprofessional in Georgia with extensive experience in early childhood education, special needs support, and childcare. I began working in childcare as a teenager, first as a babysitter, then a tutor, nanny, and substitute teacher. I find it deeply rewarding to make a difference in children's lives- creating routines, overcoming challenges, and achieving goals together, all while supporting each family's unique needs. I'm seeking a role where I can help children thrive in a safe, supportive, and fun environment. In my spare time I enjoy reading, being outside, and fun activities like making art or music. I love bringing that energy and creativity to my work! I look forward to meeting families who need a dedicated and experienced caregiver to support their children's growth and well-being.

Jenna was truly a lifesaver for my children during a very challenging period in our lives. While my ex-wife's behavior was aggressive one could say and a bit too physical at times, Jenna provided a steady, loving, and supportive presence in my children's lives. She not only ensured they were well cared for physically, but also emotionally. Jenna went above and beyond to create a safe environment for my children, where they felt heard, valued, and cared for. She always made sure they were comfortable and able to express themselves without fear or anxiety. Her nurturing nature helped them feel secure during a time of uncertainty and stress. She was also extremely attentive to their needs, both big and small, making sure they were well-fed, rested, and engaged in activities that promoted their development. Jenna often used creative ways to teach them, encourage their curiosity, and foster their emotional resilience. Her consistent and compassionate approach helped my children feel stable, loved, and protected when things at home were difficult. I will always be grateful for the safe space she provided for them, as well as her dedication and care during such a turbulent time. Jenna became a source of consistent love, stability, and comfort for my 7 and 9 year old children. She recognized the challenges they were facing and adapted her care to meet their emotional and physical needs with great sensitivity. Jenna took the time to establish a trusting and nurturing relationship with both children, making them feel safe and valued. She created a routine that provided structure, which was especially important given the instability at home. Her patience and calm demeanor allowed the children to feel heard, and she always ensured they knew they could turn to her with any concerns. Beyond basic caregiving, Jenna recognized the emotional toll the situation had on my kids and provided age-appropriate support. She offered them a comforting presence when they were upset, and helped them process difficult emotions without overwhelming them. She also kept them engaged with fun, creative, and educational activities, giving them the opportunity to experience joy and laughter, which was crucial during such a stressful period. Jenna’s ability to provide both a safe haven and emotional support meant that my children felt cared for, even when their home life was far from ideal. Her professionalism and dedication allowed me to trust that my children were in good hands, and I will forever be grateful for the role she played in making their lives more stable and positive during such a turbulent time.
