Heya! My name is Joanna. I am from Tennessee and been in the Indiana area for 4 years now. Before moving to Indiana I was working as a counselor for 5-18-year-olds in a psychiatric hospital. During college where I studied psychology and human development I taught after school STEM and was a live in nanny for a family of 4. Triplet newborns and their 3-year-old brother, I was their nanny for 5+ years. During the summer I also was a summer camp counselor and worked my way up to camp director. I now live in Elkhart with my husband and 4 fur babies. We are excited to be in the area and dig our roots deep here. I am an animal lover, I have 2 dogs and 2 rabbits who are my pride and joy. I grew up on a farm where no pet was to wild or crazy , where out rabbit had an entire bedroom, my bird free reign lived in my loft bedroom and so many random pets. I love fur babies and taking care of them is my joy. On top of caring for my own pets , I also have experience working in a veterinary hospital.

We were incredibly fortunate to find Joanna! She responded to a last minute, immediate-need job posting when we unexpectedly lost childcare for our 1-year-old. As luck would have it, we ended up with a snow day midweek as well. Joanna was extremely accommodating and did not hesitate to take on our four school aged children in addition to our 1-year-old. I don't know what we would have done that week without her! We are so grateful and hope to have her continue as our date night and occasional sitter.
