This is the background check we require for all caregivers.
Experience: 10 yrs
I am a mature, competent, experienced mother of 3 . I worked as a teacher's aide in a nursery school, and a nanny, prior to starting my own family. While raising my children, I extended my services to many local parents. I cared for up to 6 additional children daily (10 years) in my home. The majority of my career has been spent tending to newborns-preschool, including twins and hearing impaired. I believe that children are a product of their environment and up-bringing so I teach by example. I believe in old fashioned values, of honesty and respect. My home is/was always filled with music, laughter, giggles, chatter, and smiles. I enjoy reading, engaging in make believe and interactive play, as well as exploring nature & crafts. Television and video games have their place, but sharing, social interaction, fresh air, and exercise all come first. I am currently looking to focus on extending my services to just one family in their home. I am pet friendly, with reliable transport.

We hired Jen in the winter of 2014 shortly after my first daughter was born and she currently takes care of our 2yr old and 7mth old. Jen embodies a wonderful mix of kindness, creativity and humor. When we started our search I was very particular about finding someone who would engage my daughter(s) and be very interactive. Jen is fantastic in this arena. She reads, sings, encourages independent (as well as interactive) play, takes the girls outside often (weather permitting). The list goes on and on. If you are looking for someone you can trust, someone who would care for your children as if they were her own, you have found yourself a match in Jen. I will be forever grateful for the care she gave my daughters when I myself couldn't be there. She has become an extension of our family and we are so very blessed to have her in our lives.
