About Jen

Experience: 20 yrs

Nurturing a child's potential is my lifelong passion, and I am dedicated to making a positive, lasting impact on the families I support. With 20 years of experience, I provide reliable, high-quality care for up to three children, ranging from infants to pre-teens. I hold CPR Training and First Aid Training certifications. My patient, creative approach keeps children engaged through outdoor sports, educational games, and crafts. I am comfortable enforcing household rules and am happy to assist with meal preparation, carpooling, and light housekeeping. I prioritize clear communication, whether through verbal updates at pickup or your preferred digital method. Because I am a skilled swimmer, I am always happy to provide safe, active supervision during pool time. I truly look forward to becoming a trusted partner in your family's daily life and helping your children grow.

Jen is fabulous. She has worked with us several years - first as a nanny. When our child care needs changed (our son is now in school full time), she still works with us as a part time house manager. I cannot say enough great things. She is incredibly responsible and well organized. And just a nice person to be around!
