About Jessica

Hi! My name is Jessica. I recently graduated from Arizona State University. I'm the oldest of three siblings and have grown up surrounded by younger siblings and cousins, so caring for kids has always come naturally to me. I've been working with the Park District since 2019 in various childcare roles, including camp counselor and childcare worker. Most of my experience is with children ages three through adolescence. For the past two years, I've been the site coordinator of an after-school program, where I lead and supervise children daily. I'm passionate about creating a fun, safe, and engaging environment that encourages kids to learn, grow, and develop both socially and emotionally. I believe in fostering creativity, building confidence, and promoting positive relationships, all while ensuring every child feels supported and valued. I also love dogs, so furry friends are always a bonus! I look forward to meeting your family and providing the best care possible.
