I love working with children (especially infants), and I have had years of experience on and off working with children, as well as providing foster care. Currently I am attending college part time (1-2 nights a week) and am looking for a part time and dependable nanny position while going to school. Just before fostering I was a nanny to an adorable baby (about 4 months old when started) for 5 months until the baby's grandmother took over. From Nov 2001-May 2012 I cared for two children ages 12 months and 2 years, from 2007-2010 I worked at a military school age program ages 7-12, and I also volunteered in the "toddler room " at church. The family I am a nanny for now will be moving their son to a daycare center on August 15th this year (2016), so I will be in need of a nanny job again. Read more We are sad to part, but I am grateful for a glowing reference from them. My resume and references are available upon request. If I don't respond within a day of being contacted, it means I have been hired by a new family:-).

Jennifer is very sweet and gentle. You can tell she cares a lot about kids and really loves to invest in them. She is creative and has taken the time to find age appropriate games to play with my toddler and is proactive in helping me with getting our infant on a more structured routine. I think she is going to be a great fit for our family. I know she may be looking for additional hours with another family since we are offering part time and as of now (11/5) I would recommend her.
