About Jenna

Experience: 10 yrs

My name is Jenna and I am a marine biologist by trade, now working as a high school science teacher! My passion for childcare developed early, and I started babysitting kids in the neighborhood around the age of 10. Throughout high school, college, and graduate school I maintained regular nanny jobs, as well as being a date night sitter for multiple families. I have cared for children of every age, including some with special needs. Engaging with kids through art projects, imaginative play, and baking always brings laughter and enjoyment to my day and theirs. I love getting to know each child's personality and what's unique about them. I look forward to providing a safe environment for your kids to learn and have fun in the time you're away.

We’ve had the pleasure of having Jenna care for our son since he was a newborn through 9 mos, and we couldn’t be happier. Her experience as a teacher truly shines through in her interactions with children. She has a calm and nurturing demeanor that immediately puts both parents and kids at ease. Our son absolutely adores her, and she has been instrumental in his early development. On top of that, she's wonderful with our dog, seamlessly managing both the baby and our furry friend. We highly recommend Jenna to any family looking for a reliable and loving caregiver.
