Hi! My name is Jackie and here's a little about me. I'm a sophomore in college currently majoring in psychology with a chance for history education. I've been babysitting/nannying for the past year or so but prior to that I lifeguarded and taught swim lessons for 3+ years. Personality wise, I'm outgoing and funny (or at least I think I am), with safety always being my number one concern. I also can drive, don't smoke and I am AED/CPR/First Aid certified. In terms of specialized experience, I have a gluten allergy (celiacs) so I take allergies very seriously as well.

My name is Eric. I’m a fun-loving soul who has a strong passion for spending time with newborns, infants, toddlers, and adolescents. I enjoy seeing the developmentalmilestones in each stage of life.I enjoying learning from children who carry much energy and joy with themselves. Intiallty, I’ve worked with children since I was in middle school. Working with those with special needs and still a huge contributor with best buddies/special Olympics who I hold dearly to my heart. In addition, in 2020 I start working in the medical field with pediatrics (specifically newborns-toddlers) and in the future possibly pursuing as a family nurse practitioner! I take huge pride in working with children and getting to know them on a individual level and developing a therapeutic relationship with them. Also I enjoy watching them grow and learn as they face life endeavors and wanting to be apart of them learning how to problem solve
