About Janith

COVID-19 vaccinated

My name is Janith, I am 24, and I have 6 years of care giving experience. I've taken care of both the elderly and infants, both able bodied and special needs. Care giving is a passion of mine since I was a teen and I've always loved forming meaningful connections with kids and their families. From reading books, arts and crafts, and nature walks I know how to keep a child entertained and learning. I'm very compassionate and know patience, which means that I can teach discipline without ever making a child feel anxious or inferior. Forming a bond with the child is a priority of mine because it means listening to them and their interests and building trust. I'm also not afraid of a little light house keeping (pertaining to the child's needs). I have references and recommendations from past families. Please feel free to ask for any, as some are off the app. I hope my experience is of interest.

I would highly recommend Janith as a nanny. It’s apparent that Janith truly cares for our child. She adapts how she structures time with him based his needs, our schedule, and other factors like weather. She makes him always feel safe. He has grown very attached, and often asks if “Janith is coming too,” or exclaims “Janith!” with excitement when she arrives. I work from home most of the week, so I see how she cares for him and keeps him on a predictable schedule. The only reason we are letting her go is because we’re moving to a different city. Otherwise, we’d have wanted to keep her around as long as she was willing. Janith is a highly responsible professional. She has great instincts. When she has our child, I do not worry. She’s a great communicator and will keep us posted about anything we want updates on, for example. She has also been very flexible, which has been immensely helpful when the unexpected arises.
