Meet Jessenia

- Comfortable with pets
Hello! My name is Jessenia, and I’m a warm, reliable, and experienced childcare provider fluent in both English and Spanish. With over 8 years of hands-on experience, I’ve cared for children of all ages and truly enjoy creating safe, nurturing, and engaging environments where kids can learn and grow. My experience includes: • 5 years caring for children ages 4–12 — helping with homework, preparing meals/snacks, organizing creative activities, and supporting after-school routines • 3 years working with newborns and toddlers — experienced with feeding, diapering, nap schedules, and early developmental care What I offer: • Light housekeeping during childcare hours (tidying play areas, dishes, organizing toys) • Pet-friendly care — comfortable around and respectful of family pets • CPR & First Aid certified • Fully vaccinated, with references and background check available upon request • Strong communication — I provide regular updates on your child’s day, milestones, and any Read more concerns I believe in encouraging curiosity through play-based learning, creativity, and positive reinforcement. I enjoy incorporating arts and crafts, outdoor play, and bilingual story time in both Spanish and English, tailoring activities to each child’s unique interests and developmental stage. Outside of caregiving, I enjoy preparing simple, nutritious meals and spending time outdoors in local parks. I’m organized, patient, and bring a calm, consistent, yet fun and engaging energy to every family I work with. Availability: • Full-time availability during the summer • After 3:30 PM on weekdays and flexible weekends during the school year Rate: Starting at $20/hour (flexible depending on number of children, hours, and responsibilities) I currently work as a DOE Family Worker and am looking for occasional babysitting opportunities where I can support families as needed. I’m a great fit for date nights, last-minute needs, or extra support during busy weeks. I’d love to connect and see how I can support your family when you need an extra set of hands!

Jessenia was great with my 3 kids. She established trust and the kids were comfortable with her right away. It was great having her help us.

Jessenia was wonderful. At 1am, I found out I needed someone to care for my son that day. Long story short, they morning I spoke with Jessenia and she came over immediately! She arrived right when she said she would and my son warmed up to her immediately! She was very responsible and let me know when they went to the park as well as when she was returning. She shared so many photos of my son playing! It was so nice! I will definitely be reaching out to Jessenia again for future help (and hopefully she’s available!)
