Jennifer is very attentive to the children's needs. She took care of my twins (boy and girl) from the time they were 18 months to 4 years old as well as a 4 year old (boy) who is now 6. She was patient and kind and kept them active and busy with many trips to the zoo, Nature Centers and Play Spaces. Whenever they were asleep or occupied, she was always very helpful about picking up around the house, preparing meals and organizing. I recommend Jennifer very highly.
