Jenni Watts Evans has been involved in Early Childhood Education and Development from many angles, beginning in the classroom as a toddler and preschool teacher. Jenni moved into advocacy work as a Parent Counselor at Child Care Resources of Agenda For Children helping parents find quality child care and training teachers of young children. Jenni worked to advocate for quality early care and education, better wages and support for teachers and caregivers, employer supports for parents, and anti-bias and anti-racist education through participation in the international Anti-Bias Education and Leadership Project.
After having children, Jenni joined the staff at The Parenting Center at Children’s Hospital. As a Parent Educator, then Program and Outreach Manager, Jenni provided information and parent support on child development, challenging behavior, values-based parenting, and more.
While she continues to provide parent support through Parenting Center programs like the one at Covenant House, Jenni returned to the classroom as Lead Teacher and resident Parent Educator at an area Early Learning Center. Jenni also offers consultation to parents privately as far as the internet will reach.
Jenni has two children, Reina, 28, and Haley, 26.
