Experience: 15 yrs
For over 15+ years, I've found immense joy in nurturing young minds and providing reliable support to families. I love kids and taking care of them like they are my own. I'm fast on my feet and problem solve when parent is unavailable. My positive experiences in previous babysitting roles and having sons of my own solidified my desire to make a real difference in children's lives. I approach childcare with a patient and friendly demeanor. I'm very comfortable enforcing household rules and believe in open communication with parents following your preferred method, whether it's a quick chat at end of day or regular updates via text. I enjoy engaging children with outdoor sports, board games, and educational activities. I'm happy to help with light housekeeping, laundry for the child(ren) and light meals . I'm comfortable caring for one child to two kids at most. Knowing I can bring a sense of calm and fun to your child's day is what truly motivates me.
Janar has been our full time nanny for our now 2 year old boy for the past year and we are so sad to have to part ways, but are only doing so because we want to send him to daycare before he starts school. As first time parents, we really appreciated Janar’s calm and nurturing demeanor throughout our son’s different phases over the past year. I remember when we were looking for nannies, our son cried with everyone else but immediately warmed up to Janar. Her calm energy and motherly experience just comes across so naturally that even our baby could tell. She genuinely cared for our boy like he was her own, and it made a world of a difference as working parents to trust Janar with him all day. She’s incredible with taking him around the city and looking for playgrounds and activities and classes for him. She always respected our desires and parenting styles and our schedule and worked with us to adjust things as he got older. She was always on time, very communicative over text on any changes to the schedule, and was great at sharing photos and videos. I say all these logistical things because I know they’re important to people looking, but really what we loved about Janar was how much we could tell our son enjoyed spending the day with her. The fact that now our son happily waves goodbye to us as he goes out for the day with Janar says so much about her and how great she is with kids. We’re so grateful that we got to have Janar in our family and son’s life, and whoever works with her next is genuinely so lucky.
