About Jennifer
Experience: 20 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
Hello! :) My name is Jennifer. I'm a 51-year-old mother of two sons (22 & 17.) I have cared for children ages birth-12 years. After being laid-off from a down-sizing brokerage firm 20 years back, I decided to incorporate babysitting into being a stay-at-home mommy, & I just ADORE it. I have found this to be the most rewarding line of work ever as my motto has been & will always be to keep love in my heart at all times. I maintain a very caring, cheerful, enthusiastic, fun, loving, patient, positive, prayerful attitude. I read stories and encourage activities to do with toys, games, books, etc. I incorporate music and art activities to encourage creativity as well. I believe in sensible discipline only and recommending other measures to correct behavior. I've escorted children to outings and trips to local parks. Your child/children are important to me. Thank you for your consideration & time in reading my post! :)

As a person who is steeped in parenting research and education I couldn’t be happier with Jenny. She excels in creating a nurturing environment that prioritizes emotional responsiveness and genuine respect for each child. She truly listens to and understands the kids, helping them navigate their emotions in a supportive way. Jenny’s honest respect for their feelings fosters strong emotional growth, and her approach is always rooted in empathy. I highly recommend her to any parent seeking a caregiver who values both connection and emotional development.
