What’s it’s Like Being a Home Visitor Right out of College

Desree | Jumpstart Home Visitor

To start, I am extremely grateful to have received this job a month after graduating! It has been a great learning experience so far.

The hardest part about transitioning from college to a career has been moving back home with my family after 4 years of being mostly on my own. The best part is finally being able to apply what I’ve learned in the classroom to hands-on situations.

I am looking forward to supporting families while building meaningful relationships with them during our home visits!
