About Jenny

Experience: 5 yrs

At the heart of my qualifications as a caregiver, are my sincere love and compassion for children and my desire to encourage and inspire them to be the best they can be. I have been a nanny for more than 2yrs to fam of 5 children ages 2 (twins), 4, 6 and 10. And also for 8 other families. I volunteered for nearly 20 years in children's programs for a Sunday School class with up to 30 toddlers. Since leaving my 38 year non-profit career, I have been employed as a Paraeducator in the South Kitsap School district, working at 2 elementary schools. I worked in a kindergarten class, two 5th grade classes and taught small group reading and math to grades 1-5. And I LOVE to play! You can always count on me to be dependable, kind, patient and understanding. And don't think my age slows me down one bit! I am active and love to take the kids to parks, library, on walks and I play Pickleball and other sports. As your caregiver, I will provide the peace of mind that you need for your children.

you literally could not hire a more caring, kind, genuine human! she took the most loving care of our little one from 9 months to 3 years old, and whether the vibe was active (playground, beach, park, wading pool) or mellow (playing, art projects, reading) or functional, Jenny was the engaged partner our family needed; besides that, she was always on time, communicative, and has an infectious, warm personality that was a calming influence on our entire household!
