Hello Parents! I'm Jessica, and I have many years of babysitting experience! I feel one of the best parts of babysitting is bringing my passions to my time with children. Whether it means knitting a fun project, getting creative with a fun collage, or teaching some American Sign Language, I always aim to make it enjoyable! If I had to pick several words to describe myself, they would be reliable, trustworthy, caring, and patient. I have a Master of Arts in Social Emotional Learning, a Bachelor's in Liberal Studies, and an Associate's degree in Elementary Education. After many years working in schools as a Social Emotional Learning Specialist, as well as a Children's Librarian at a public library, I launched a business, Focus on Abilities (a Social-Emotional Learning Center). I look forward to hearing from you!

Jessica is a kind, caring, and patient person, whom I feel very fortunate to have met so early on since moving to the area. I met Jessica at a local storytime when my family and I first moved here. She was the children's librarian and always created a fun, nurturing, positive, and welcoming environment for the kids. My son always asks me when we are going to storytime to see his "friends and Ms. Jessica". Her bright smile and upbeat attitude instills confidence and comfort, and always leaves a lasting positive impact on both my son and I.
