Hi! My name is Jenna and I’m currently a sophomore at Quinnipiac University. I’d love to help out families by providing child care, pet care, or general household help! I’ve been a long-time babysitter for many families in my area since before I could drive, and I often watch and walk dogs through the Wag! app. I can be very active with kids and play any sports/games they want, but I’m also very crafty and love to just talk and watch movies! I’m also CPR certified and a licensed child care provider through the HMH certification course. Im also available to run errands and help with cleaning or laundry! I love to drive and shop, and I’ve been my mothers personal errand-runner for years with great reviews. And after being to college, there is nothing I’m not ready to clean!
“Jenna accepted my last minute booking and arrived early. She was very upbeat and a pleasure to be around. She confidently handled my toddler twin boys who enjoyed playing with her. I would not hesitate to hire Jenna again as a babysitter.”
I have been babysitting since I was 15 years old, caring for families with anywhere from one to four children ranging in age from newborns to 12 years old. I also have a one year old of my own and bring a strong educational background to my childcare experience. I’ve been a teacher for nine years with a focus in special education and have taught Kindergarten, 1st, 3rd, 4th, and 5th grades. I’m very hands-on and love engaging kids in both indoor and outdoor activities, from creative crafts to active play. I’m also happy to help with homework, chores, and daily routines. I can prepare meals, tidy up, and ensure the kids stay on track while having fun. In addition to my love for working with children, I’m an animal lover who grew up with dogs and currently has a chocolate lab.
“Absolutely wonderful! Courtney is engaged with my son the whole time she is here!”
I am a mother of two, wildly energetic toddlers under the age of 5! I have a Masters in Social Work, am passionate about the neurodivergent community and I'm a houseplant enthusiast! My love for pets is unmatched and unbiased (cats + dogs are equally adored). I have experience as a part-time nanny (10+ years) and continue to work with children presently. I welcome the opportunity to support any household needs families may have as well!

"UrbanSitter is my go-to for quality sitters! I can book weeks ahead of time or easily find a same-day sitter when in a bind. I even hired a part-time nanny during a daycare transition. Customer service is helpful and babysitters respond in a timely manner."
