Looking for work as a babysitter.

  • 18 years paid experience
  • Babysitter in Brighton, MA 02135

Meet Jennifer

  • Speaks English, Korean, Portuguese, and Spanish
  • Comfortable with pets

I am a current BU graduate student and I have extensive experience watching children in Los Angeles. I started babysitting when I was about 12 and did so regularly for family and friends, with my clientele growing through word of mouth. I studied linguistics and education and then moved to Korea, where I taught kindergarten and then university. I also tutored children ranging from 4 years old to 17 years old in individual and group settings. I am emergency first responder certified and very mature. I welcome further opportunities to work with children, as they provide an energy and vibrancy that my other work opportunities do not provide for me. I am well-versed in childcare, safety, and can help with homework or whatever your children need to do while I am watching them. Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have questions!

Jennifer is always great! She is extremely competent, and provides my 6-month old with wonderful care. She is able to complete his night time routine just as I do so there is no disruption to his schedule when I have evening plans. We will definitely continue to book with her.

Jennifer was warm and caring toward our two-and-a-half year old son. She fed him dinner and took him through his bedtime routine smoothly. When he woke up the next morning, the first thing he said was, "I loved Jennifer!"

Jennifer not only arrived on time but was also flexible ina first meeting a couple of days before. She was great with our daughter and was able to get her out of an Anxiety funk. Oh and she also was so calm with our 6 month old puppy. Great babysitter and we will be having her back hopefully!

Jennifer was super sweet and my 14 month old took to her right away. She was good about checking on him throughout the night (even though he was fast asleep).

Jennifer is fantastic! She is our go-to sitter and my kids just adore her. Even my 18-month-old who is in the midst of separation anxiety calms right down and starts playing when Jennifer arrives. She is warm, thoughtful and a great communicator:) I can't recommend her highly enough.

Our kids loved Jennifer! She was able to pick our kids up from school, get take out, and fed the kids. My daughter liked that Jennifer got her a blanket and they did "homework" together. `My son said she was nice and they had fun. :)

Both girls had a great time with Jennifer. We will definitely have her sit again!

Jennifer was very nice, flexible, and capable of handling both children (one-and-a-half and four years old). Both kids seemed very happy reading stories with her, as well as going outside outside to play with her.

Jennifer was very knowledgeable of how to handle an infant, she took charge of putting my daughter to bed and once we left she updated us on when the baby went down.

We have had the honor of Jennifer taking care of our children (1 & 3yo) multiple times and we can't say enough great things about her! She has a gentle and calming energy that is perfect for children and puts everyone at ease. I feel very comfortable when our kids are in her hands. Furthermore she is intelligent, creative and clearly has a lot of fun with our little ones- a superb caregiver!

This was our first time booking Jennifer and our first time using Chime. It was a great experience overall and Jennifer was great with our son. She was very punctual, seemed to get along nicely with our son and our dog and very helpful with explaining her experiences with Chime. We would definitely book with Jennifer again.

Jennifer took to our daughter quickly and was able to get her in a good mood after being cranky all day! We should have had her come over earlier to help us out! :) Jennifer gets bonus points for making her way to us in a blizzard.

Jennifer was warm and great with my kids. My 15-month-old is sometimes shy and she immediately connected with Jennifer and allowed her to pick her up, even as I was heading out the door. Will definitely book her again!
