Hello. I have been in the childcare field for over 28 years specializing in providing the best care for your child/children while parents are working and/or attending school. I provide "hands-on" and nuture as I feel this is very important. I have specialized training in the fields of asthma, special needs, child abuse, sexual abuse, cpr/first aid certification as well as Child Development. I work with children who have speech impairments, learning disabilities as well as teaching pre-school for chidren getting ready for kindergarden. I provide transportation to schools - District 3 (Beach Park Schools) and District 6 (Zion Schools) if needed. I provide back-up care, sick care as well as vacation/summer care. Nothing is more rewarding then having one of your daycare children comeup to you at the end of the day and say "I love you Miss Jan - your the best" with a hug/kiss. It makes my job so rewarding. I have had children from newborn to middle school who often bring up things that had happened (potty training, that special birthday party, stickers for good deeds) which often makes me feel that all my work has made this child excel in life and its a wonderful feeling.

Ready to experience the best babysitter that your kids will be disappointed you came home? Hello, I am interested in becoming a babysitter for you! My name is Tenia. I have been working with children and adolescents my entire life, and have been working on Sittercity for a few years now, and have been working with the same families for 2-3 years as well. Working with children is my passion, whether it is therapeutic or fun! I don’t have any children of my own so looking over other families' children fills my baby/kid fever! I treat all children as if they were my own and I love watching them grow each day! You will not have to worry about leaving your children in my care! I strive to make sure both you as the parent and your children are comfortable so you can have peace while you are away from your kiddos! I am currently CPR-certified and will provide documentation if needed. I can drive children to activities, watch children at your home, watch children at my home, help with homework, prepare meals, and teach healthy skills. I have been babysitting for many years and these rates are based on my experience and quality of work! However, I am open to discussing prices! I am easygoing and welcome communication of any sorts! I believe all parents should be able to have access to babysitting care. I look forward to working with you and your kiddos! If you are happy with my services, please leave a review! :) If you are not happy, let’s talk! I am very open to feedback and criticism! I have a family that you can contact as a reference if needed! :)

To my potential family, I am so excited to meet you and hopefully develop a lifelong relationship! I am filled with SO much excitement and joy at the possibility that we might just be exactly what the other is looking for! As an individual, I am curious, intelligent, intuitive, and have a great sense of humor! I love to love life and do so with kindness, compassion, and curiosity. As a nanny, I am a nurturer, space holder, guide, buddy, role model, and safety patrol! I love to see children be exactly who they are while guiding them effortlessly through their growth - good times, and hard times, in a way that is correct for them. After 14 years of nannying for families short + long term, from newborn to 16+, with as many as 5 children at once, I have come to find there is definitely an 'art' to being a nanny that I am excited to continue to create with each new family. I am an active participant in children's lives, and provide an environment where we can play, explore, learn, and BE! Whether we are playing catch outside, out at a park or playground, exploring town, sitting down to create experiential play, learning new topics together, out about in nature, helping with homework, or settling down in a bedtime routine, I do so with curiosity in my mind, and love in my heart!! I am looking for a family who truly values the beauty of being alive and who also has warmth, kindness, intelligence, and really great energy! I would flourish in a relationship with parents who value personal growth and open communication, and who has a structured but go-with-flow attitude, as well as a deep respect for one another's time, energy, and efforts in making a healthy and happy environment for everyone involved! I would love to be a part of someone's home who appreciates me as an individual, but also recognizes all of the things I can bring to their family as their nanny! It would feel fulfilling to have a family acknowledge that my background comes with a variety of skills that are both logical such as forward-thinking, organization, and time management, as well as emotional skills such as open-heartedness, impeccable intuition & awareness of surroundings, and the ability to guide each child individually and uniquely to their personality! I hope to meet you soon!
