Hello, my name is Jennifer. I am an experienced nanny, household manager, and tutor with a degree in Early Childhood Education from Indiana University. I have many years of experience supporting busy families by creating organized, calm, and nurturing home environments where children can thrive. I especially enjoy working with school-aged children and supporting their academic growth through homework help, reading development, and structured routines. Because I am dyslexic myself, I understand how children learn differently and often incorporate multi-sensory strategies inspired by the Orton-Gillingham approach. In addition to childcare, I am very comfortable assisting with household management, including scheduling, organizing, errands, and meal preparation. I am currently seeking a long-term position with approximately 30 guaranteed hours per week at a rate around $30/hour, with a family who values professionalism, communication, and a positive home environment.

Jennifer was awesome! The kids loved her, and she was very good with keeping our complex situation under control. Jennifer was also very accommodating and well organized. She was much more than just a sitter and spent hours with my kids teaching them how to swim.

I am currently transitioning from a 60 hr/week corporate job to a better work/life balance, so that I can spend more time with my elderly parent. I have worked for Grace Church daycare, and I helped my sister to raise her 2 young children when she divorced. I have a calm and comforting demeanor, and I enjoy 1:1 engagement with children of all ages, but I prefer ages 2+. I believe in providing timely updates to parents, and I always do a pre-interview meeting with the children. I am mainly interested in one-time jobs, but I am open to recurring jobs if they will work into my personal schedule with my parent. Please contact me if you feel I may be a fit for your needs!

Through the years I have been a babysitter, a nanny and a preschool teacher. I also helped with light housekeeping, cooking and pet care. I have experience with newborns through school age.
