Hi! My name is Jenna Barton and my husband, four legged friend, and I live in Belleville, IL! I am currently seeking full time nanny employment. I am open to watching one child, multiple children from one family, or children from multiple families. I really enjoy being a part of people's families and helping families do what's best for their kiddos! I have worked with children of all ages and enjoy caring for children up through adolescence. I am completely comfortable with helping care for family pets as well, including birds, cats, dogs, amphibians, etc. In the past I have always been responsible for keeping a tidy home while working and really enjoy lightening the parents' loads so once they get home from work, they can enjoy time with their family. Duties including laundry, cooking, light vacuuming, kitchen cleaning, making beds, picking up toys., etc are all fine by me. Read more I am an outgoing, honest, and responsible adult who LOVES to be outside! I love being able to share nature with others and feel it's important for kids to get time outdoors whenever they can. I am a pretty open book when it comes to activities and enjoy being able to do fun things with children that parents approve. As you can see, I have lots of education--I recently had a professional counseling job and quickly realized how much I really feel nannying is a great career for me, my family, and our lifestyle so, here I am seeking an awesome family to provide high quality child care! Please feel free to browse my profile and do not hesitate to message me with any questions. I am looking to start work immediately so have lots of flexibility regarding a start date. Thanks for your time and consideration! :)

Jenna has nannied for us since July (6.5 months), and if she weren't moving, we'd like to keep her forever! Provided the most engaging, loving care for our now 13 month old son. Shared joie de vivre of various aspects of daily life in educational and entertaining ways, teaching him language, laughter, compassion, patience, and ways to destress along the way. I trusted her to care for my son in each and every scenario that could possibly come up, and knew she would convey all the important facts I needed to hear in a timely and comprehensive manner. Excellent communication skills, positive outlook, understanding personality, and so very easy to work with. She was a huge compliment to our family, and we will be forever grateful for her service to us. Please feel free to contact me with any speicific questions - I have nothing but glowing reviews for her skillset and personality, and I trusted her with the caregiving to my most prized and precious charge with utmost confidence.
