About
Hi! My name is Jessica! I have always had a passion for children, especially babies! I am a Certified Postpartum Doula as well as a Certified Newborn Care Specialist. Since 2016, I have been certified as a child sleep consultant. I also am a Certified Breastfeeding Specialist and am working towards becoming an IBCLC. I have a Masters in Education and over 15 years of experience caring for children of all ages in a variety of settings. Since 2011, I have been primarily caring for infants, mostly preemies & twins. Prior to 2011, I worked in an early learning center for 5 years, taught elementary school for 2 years and was a nanny for several different families. From May 2015 until July 2017, I had the amazing opportunity to care for abandoned infants and toddlers in Uganda. I have a true passion for children. I look forward to speaking to you if you think we might be a good fit!
