Jessie brings valuable experience to SHACC, having cared for children in a home setting where she developed a deep appreciation for the joy and energy that comes with working closely with young learners. Her hands-on experience has given her insight into how to create a warm, nurturing environment where children feel safe and comfortable to explore, play, and grow. Jessie is passionate about helping children discover their unique interests and enjoys introducing them to new activities that spark their curiosity and excitement.

Crafts and games are among Jessie’s favorite ways to engage children, as she believes these activities provide a great opportunity for creative expression, learning, and fun. Whether it’s guiding a child through a new art project, playing an interactive game, or simply encouraging imaginative play, Jessie is dedicated to making each day a new adventure for the children in her care. Her enthusiasm for discovering new activities alongside the children creates a vibrant atmosphere where kids feel motivated to try new things and explore their creativity.

Outside of work, Jessie cherishes the time she spends with her son. They share a love for outdoor adventures, and some of their favorite moments together involve trips to the beach or local parks, where they hunt for interesting rocks and explore the beauty of nature. Jessie’s appreciation for the simple joys in life, like discovering a unique rock or enjoying the ocean breeze, reflects her caring and patient approach to both motherhood and her role at SHACC. Her dedication to creating meaningful, engaging experiences makes her a wonderful addition to the SHACC team, where she is excited to help each child grow and thrive.
