About Jennifer

I'm fun and caring, and follow parental guidance. I have experience with children of all ages. I love toddlers and preschoolers because they see the world from a different perspective--their authenticity & enthusiasm is catching. Older kids are capable of more complicated understanding, thinking and playing, and it's lots of fun engaging with them on their level. And infants bring out the maternal instinct in me--it's so satisfying to be able to calm them when they're upset, I just love cuddling and caring for them. I'm looking for very part- time work, just once or twice a week. I started working with kids as a teen, worked briefly as a nanny after college, taught in after- school programs, ran my own mommy-and-me business for 16 years, and am a mother myself. Most recently I worked with a family from when their child was 2 months old until he was 9. I have a lifetime of experience! I'm a composer in my spare time ;)
