Booked by 2 families in Blauvelt, NY

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.”
