About Jessica

Hi! My name is Jess and I'm a 26-year-old PhD candidate in counseling psychology. I conduct therapy with children with behavioral problems during the school year, but am not practicing over the summer. I adore kids and am just not ready for my own. I have worked as a babysitter since my teenage years and a nanny throughout my 20's. I have cared for toddlers to teenagers with diverse cultural backgrounds and needs, including a young boy with autism and siblings in the foster care system. Typically, I create a summer bucket list to accomplish with the kiddos, after completing whatever house- or schoolwork they have. I am always willing to brainstorm fun outings, though this may be hard with the coronavirus. I am immunocompromised, so I will take the health of your family seriously. I hope to create security and strong relationship with the families I work for, and also, have an enjoyable summer. Please reach out if you have any further questions. I look forward to speaking with you!
