About Jackie

I love kids. 2 is actually my favorite age, though at times challenging, I find it fun & heart warming. I'm a mother of 3 crazy/ brilliant children (14 12yr old girls & spirited 3yr old boy). My youngest have high functioning Asperger's, so I am familiar with sensory issues & can be a good fit for some children who may be misunderstood by others. I love baking, reading, dancing, singing and doing art, crafts & experiments with kids. My girls homeschooled from K-7th grade & even taught them to code taught other students in their weekly classes. I have taken care of 9 kids at a time, and am comfortable with ages 0- 14+. In my twenties, I managed a children's retail store that also hosted Birthday parties. I have also hosted private hands on Science and craft parties with as many as 20 kids! Currently I tutor struggling readers online & clean vacation rentals. I love to have fun and be creative. I am also very patient and indeed a softy, though firm when needed-
