I'd describe my personality as consistent, creative and kind. I like working with kids because they remind me to see the joys and wonders in our everyday world that adults usually take for granted I'm looking for a job that allows me to be with my littles and help another family with care at the same time. I started working with kids when I was a teenager as the neighborhood babysitter. Then in college I realized I had missed being around kids and found part time babysitting jobs. After college I started as a nanny full time and have never looked back. In my spare time, I like to play with my kids. Have a nice meal with my husband or some girlfriends. I love swimming, crafting and reading, but haven't had much time to dedicate to that recently. One thing you should know about me is that I really enjoy what I do and would totally do it for free if I could. My skills include consistency, setting boundaries, and mimicking a parents' parenting style.
Jennifer is a fantastic sitter. She took excellent care of our daughter from 6 months old to nearly 1.5 years after we had to return to work. I was so nervous as a first time mom, but Jennifer's caring, nurturing and conscientiousness really put my mind at ease. She is so easy to talk to and tries to be accommodating and very communicative throughout the day with pictures and updates. She treated my daughter like one of her own, and my daughter loved her like another mom. She also has lots of developmentally appropriate toys for different age ranges and is skillful at facilitating a variety of fun and enjoyable activities throughout the day. Because she has small children of her own, it also gave my daughter, who is an only child, the opportunity to experience sharing space with other little kids, and Jennifer did an amazing job helping the kids work through challenging social squabbles. I would highly recommend her to any family seeking a compassionate, kind and very skillful nanny or sitter for their child. She is a true gem and we are fortunate that we crossed paths with her
