    Jenny is an experienced child-care professional who's affable, kid-friendly, trustworthy, and discreet. She's a self-starter who can solve any problem that arises. She knows how to help set boundaries for kids so they know what is expected of them at home, school, and in the community. She helped create our client's summer programs incorporating both the child's interests as well as the parent's concerns. She created opportunities with typical teens to help client learn to use social skills. She identified areas to practice with the client to increase his independence as a young adult. Ex. Using phone alert to remind him to take his medication, putting his wallet & keys in same place in backpack, making list & shopping for gluten-free foods, buying clothes for different seasons, walk/feed dogs, laundry, etc. Jenny is amazing! She is authentic and at ease with kids, and can help them sort out what's going on. I recommend her unconditionally! She's amazing!
