“I cannot say enough good things about Jenna. From the moment she walked in, she brought ease, warmth, and confidence to our home. As a new mom, I was anxious about leaving my infant with anyone. Jenna quickly became the only person I trusted. She is intuitive with children, dependable, thoughtful, and always goes above and beyond. Her kindness is unmatched. She will be an invaluable presence in any family’s life.”
I am a responsible and caring college student with several years of hands-on experience caring for children and pets. I am a pet owner myself, of my little nanobanano so I understand the importance of caring for animals. For the past six years, I have taken care of two neighbor children, starting when they were 6 and 11 years old. Over this time, I supported them with daily supervision, homework help and tutoring. This experience has taught me responsibility and how to adapt to different personalities and needs as children grow. I am patient and organized, with strong communication skills and a calm approach in challenging situations. I am comfortable helping with light household tasks, routines, and educational support. I genuinely enjoy caring for others and take pride in being always in a positive and enthusiastic mode. As a college student, I bring a strong sense of responsibility to my caregiving work :)
Hi Everyone! I have worked with kids of all ages (as young as 4 weeks old), a variety of special needs children, and up to 8 children at one time. I have my Early Childhood Education degree and have been working with children for 17+ years! I love taking the kids outside to the park, for a walk, or a bike ride when it's nice. But when it's not so nice out, I like playing board games, coloring/crafts, reading books, having dance parties, making forts, or doing puzzles I have my own transportation as well.
Hi! My name is Betzi, and I'm a caring, reliable, and experienced nanny with over 3 years of hands-on experience working with children of different ages. I create a safe, fun, and structured environment where kids can feel happy, learn, and grow. I genuinely enjoy engaging with children through creative play, outdoor activities, and age-appropriate learning. I'm fully bilingual in English and Spanish, and I love helping children naturally develop language skills in both. I can also assist with homework, daily routines, and building positive habits. I'm known for being patient, attentive, and trustworthy. I understand how important it is for parents to feel confident and at ease, so I always communicate clearly and provide dependable, consistent care. I would love to support your family and be someone you can trust with your little ones I am also certified in CPR and First Aid.
Hi there! My name is Jess I am a recent college graduate and am now a first year physical therapy student at the U! I have worked in a PT clinic for the past two years and have gotten to work with kids there, whether that's for therapy or entertaining them while their parents are getting therapy. I am cpr certified through AHA for adults as well as infants/kids. I also have experience teaching ballet lessons to young kids! I have babysat for families in my old neighborhood a lot and am comfortable with all ages of kids. I love to be outside and am always down for an adventure! I bring fun energy and like to get creative. I am good with pets, having had two dogs most of my life, and have been an occasional cat sitter for a couple of my friends. I love to cook and try new recipes as well as spice up old ones!
