About Jennifer
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
I'm interested in occasional babysitting jobs, fill ins, as well as occasional overnight jobs & weekend gigs. I have an extensive background in childhood development & youth recreation. I worked for a cruise line for over 8 years as a Youth program Director (recreation and education program for kids ages 3-17). I also worked at Early Head Start focusing on Child Development for ages birth to 3. I was in the Peace Corps in West Africa and many of my projects there had to do with youth development. I have worked as a full time nanny for a few families and have done occasional sitting for many other families. I also have experience as a Household Manager/Personal Assistant. I'm enthusiastic about arts & crafts, sports, science projects, games and developmental play, field trips, and all sorts of other fun activities. I'm upbeat, positive & kid-focused. If you would like more information about me just ask.

Jen was an amazing help with our 9 month - 12 month old. She was super engaged, energetic, responsible and played so many fun games with him, he learned a lot from her and we would definitely hire her again in the future!
