About Jane
Experience: 15 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
I have been working with children in a wide range of settings for the past 15 years. I first started babysitting as a teenager, and since then I have worked as a classroom aide in preschool centers, a dance teacher, and a camp counselor. I have been a long-term nanny for a few beloved families and have experience caring for newborns and children with special needs. For the last 10 years I have taught at an after school program in Brookline, MA, where I've been in the Lead Teacher role for the Kindergarten program for the past 2. 5 years. Caring for and teaching children is one of my greatest joys in life. My goal as a caregiver is to create a safe, warm, inspiring environment where children can thrive and grow.

Reviewed on 5/8/2025
Jane has been with our family for seven incredible years, caring for my three children (all born within three years of each other!)—and I can confidently say she is truly one of a kind. Reliable, warm, creative, and incredibly attentive, Jane brings a calm, steady presence into our home and connects beautifully with children of all ages and personalities. She has been with us through every stage—from diaper duty and toddler tantrums to homework help and busy after-school schedules. Jane is not only responsible and trustworthy, but she is also genuinely invested in the well-being and development of the children she cares for. My kids adore her, and so do I. Jane has a gift for nurturing children while also empowering their independence. She’s the kind of caregiver who makes a lasting impact—not just a babysitter, but a true extension of our family. Any family would be lucky to have her. —Maria S., Parent
