With over 10 years of experience caring for children, I bring patience, responsibility, and a warm sense of humor that kids naturally respond to. I have excellent references from the families I’ve worked with, and I’m fully authorized to work in the U.S. I maintain a healthy, smoke-free lifestyle and take pride in being dependable and attentive. In addition to childcare, I also have experience supporting elderly individuals and am a trusted, five-star pet sitter.

Hi! My name is Jen, and I’m based in Atlanta. I offer child care, senior care, and household support. I’ve been caring for children of all ages — from newborns to teens — for several years, and I love creating a safe, fun, and positive environment for them. My background in film and event production has made me highly organized, patient, and adaptable, even in busy households. I can help with everything from school pickups and homework to meal prep, errands, and light cleaning. I’ve also cared for seniors, providing companionship, transportation to appointments, and help around the house. I truly enjoy being a dependable, caring presence for families who need an extra set of hands.

Jen was great with my 9 month old! I was so grateful to have her help. And my 2 year old loved her
