Meet Jennifer

I am a grandmother to 3. They are 2, 4,and 6 years old. I spend quite a bit of time with them. After raising 4 children of my own, 3 is a piece of cake! I was a stay-at- home mom for 20 years. It was the best experience a babysitter could get. I live by myself near my daughter and her family. My background (aside from raising my 4 college graduates who are now grown) is: I have a B.A in Psychology and a Master of Arts in Teaching in Early Childhood Education. I have experience in Infant Care, Preschool and was a Brownie troop leader, room/ soccer/ swim/ little league/Mom for many years. My last job was as an Instructional Assistant for SED (Special Ed) students in middle school. I have also been a substitute teacher since 2001 for K-12. A child's progress mentally, physically and socially is Read more so important.. I am very education oriented. Having fun and doing lots of outdoor activities as well as crafts and projects is my goal in babysitting. I lead a healthy and active life. Children are fascinating and a joy to care for.
