A very special babydoll for Jayanna who is already an amazing caregiver

Posted Nov 10, 2017
Her caseworker says, "Jayanna and I sat down to research these babies. We first searched for a brown baby whose features might be similar to her. We were unsuccessful and she said to me, “I don’t care if it looks like me. I just want a baby.” I asked her if she’d like to be a mother when she got older and she told me she would and this baby would help her to practice. "

Jayanna is 17 years old and lives in NC

Jayanna is the oldest of three. She has two younger brothers who she cares for greatly. She’s every bit the “brother’s keeper” you’d expect of an older sister. She introduces herself to her brother’s teachers and walks the boys to their classrooms in the morning. She cares greatly about people who are younger than her or who she sees need help. Her teacher has recognized this amazing trait in Jayanna and has allowed her to help another student in class. She’s a natural caregiver who loves art and gymnastics and is a strong reader.
