Work History

Special Needs Babysitter

Jill Zemlak
Burbank, CA
01.2024 - 10.2026

Cared for Logan, a boy with Smith-Magenis Syndrome (SMS), providing tailored support to meet his unique needs. We took part in activities such as playing video games, creating videos, and going for walks. I met Logan through a friend who told me his parents were in need of assistance. I took it upon myself to meet him and we hit it off immediately. Logan struggles with controlling his speaking volume and temper, so with my calmer demeanor and change from typical family disagreements, he eventually found a way to calm himself.
