Hi- I’m Jen,. I’m 55-and can’t stop loving kids! Pretty sure I can speak most languages -meaning I can get along with just about anyone (: I love active kids, being outside and watching kids thrive & “get it”- as in when I see the lightbulb come on over their head. I can equally appreciate, respect and see the beauty in an introverted child. I love and know a lot about sports and athletics and I can get the littles (& bigs) to practice and games on time and be ready to rock. I love music and if one is playing an instrument, I will make sure the practice is done. I totally get it. I played the flute for many years and have musicians in my family. Wanna get crafty?? if you would like a craft day/night - we can do flowers, unicorns, rocks and dirt, nature, we can Read more nerd out. I love it all. Need help with a school project? Science Fair entry? Show me what you need & which boxes to check -I guarantee we will be thorough and productive. Do your kids just wanna hang out and tell me about their favorite things for four hours? Sounds good to me. What makes me a great sitter?? I love to just hang out with kids and hopefully contribute to their becoming productive humans. Parents and guardians getting a break/refresher/reset is the best medicine. I’m a mom of one, grandma of two and aunt of two. CPR & BLS certified. Certified (current) Medical Assistant for the past 25 years. Let’s talk! I have yet to list my references on here- available per your request if needed prior to listing. Will also update background check as original has expired. Thanks!
