Hi, My name is Jennifer and I am 47 years old, married and the mother of three children of my own, ages 18, 16 and 12. Here are just some of the things I love : kids of all ages, gardening, taking walks, reading, crafts, coloring, picnics, hot tea, swimming, board games of all types, popcorn and ice cream. MY BACKGROUND CHECK IS IN PROCESS AND IT IS EXCELLENT. IT SHOULD POST IN A COUPLE DAYS. MY REFERENCES ARE CURRENT AND ARE AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST. I am looking for part time work and caring for children is what I am best at, so that is why I'm here. I truly believe that working with kids is one of the things I was made to do. I love babies to teenagers - - they all have something special about their age, no matter. After I retire, I hope to be a Read more full time nanny for a family. I started working with kids when I was ten years old and my heart for this work has only grown over the years. I have worked both as a full time live in nanny during my college years, and I have also logged many hours spending hourly care time with children while their parents are away. I promise to follow your house rules and to get done whatever you leave on your "to do" list, but I also promise to make sure your child is happy and comfortable while you are out. I ask that we set up a time to speak on the telephone so that you can get to know me and so that I can learn as much as possible about your child/ children and what YOU are looking for as their parent. Thank you for reading my profile and I hope to hear back from you !
