About Jennifer

Experience: 14 yrs

Hi! My name is Jen, and I would love the opportunity to support your family as a nanny. I am a reliable, caring, and easygoing caregiver with 14 years of experience working with children ranging from 4 months to 12 yrs old, caring for up to three children at a time. Throughout my career, I have helped children reach important milestones, assisted with potty training and homework, and ensured safe transportation to and from school/ extracurricular activities along with light housekeeping and cooking meals. In addition to my childcare experience, I have 3 yrs of experience as an administrative assistant. This has strengthened my organizational, communication, and time-management skills, allowing me to manage schedules, keep routines running smoothly, and stay organized in busy family environments. I love music, singing, and planning activities such as walks to the park, reading books, baking, zoo trips, beach outings, arts & crafts, and making sure everyday is full of imagination!

An absolute gift to our family—nearly 12 years of exceptional care! Finding someone you trust completely with your children is rare, but finding someone who becomes a true extension of your family is a gift. Jen had been with us for nearly 12 years, starting when our oldest son was just 4 months old up until he started middle school. She helped us raise our 3 sons and manage a household with 2 dogs and made it look easy. She has a naturally kind, calm voice that can instantly soothe a crying infant or quietly guide a high-energy room of growing boys. Over the years, she planned countless special activities tailored specifically to our boys' interests, keeping them active and engaged. Beyond incredible childcare, she kept our household running smoothly. She stepped in to help make dinner on busy school nights and balanced our crazy schedules, safely driving the boys to all of their practices and school events. Even our 2 dogs absolutely adore her. She is punctual and profoundly dependable. She is so much more than a nanny to us—she is family, and she has our highest possible recommendation.
