About Jocelyn

Hi! I am a 21yr old woman with a love of working with kids. I’ve always been the family member or friend that’s asked to watch kids. I’ve been an aunt since the age of 5 and have been working with children since around age 12. In high school I started a mentoring program for the younger kids, and often take care of my newborn-School age nieces and nephews. I went to Florida Agricultural and Mechanical University for a year but had to come home due to unforeseen circumstances. After coming back to Minnesota in 2024, I began working at a Childcare center as an aide but quickly worked my way up to Assistant teacher through CareCourses. I am CPR and First Aide certified. I love nature, music, and art so I often incorporated those things into my lessons. I am a fun, energetic, loving care taker that also thinks it’s important for kids to maintain routine and structure. I am very punctual, tidy, and strive to create a comfortable environment for kids to learn. All of my immediate family previously or currently works with children (Mom, Sister, Brother, Sister in law). My mom, who I’ve learned a lot from, was a teacher, director, equity specialist, and now works with adults 18-22 with disabilities who are transitioning to living and working on their own. My brother has worked at both a daycare center and for Fraser. One of my brothers also has autism so on top of my Children and Mental Health Course I have knowledge on how to work with neurodivergent children!!
