Meet Janine

  • Speaks French and Spanish
  • Comfortable with pets

Most recently I was nanny for a 7-month-old infant whose family is relocated to the suburbs. I'm currently in grad school, so open to babysitting most days/nights! I do have experience with all ages, but feel a special bond with infants :) I have been told by past employers that I am especially skilled in working with families who have just had their first child, which I think is such a wonderful compliment! I am infant CPR certified, I do not smoke-- and if there is anything else you'd like to know, please ask! I have quite a few references as well. Hope to work with you soon!

Janine started with us when our daughter was a colicky 9-week old. She was so patient, and never complained about those hard early days. Months later, our daughter was playful, cry-free, and smiled whenever Janine walked in the door. They were best buddies, and our baby "talked" to Janine even though she couldn't talk! She's very intuitive, responding to her needs just like you would as a mom. Janine was flexible with us -- often asked to come early (on short notice) or stay late, and even babysit on weekends. There were plenty of tears the day we moved away and had to say goodbye to sweet Janine!
