About Jen

Experience: 10 yrs

I bring over 15 years of experience supporting families who value discretion, consistency, and a truly integrated level of care. When I'm with your children, they have my complete attention. I follow the child's lead, celebrating who they are while nurturing respect and accountability. Watching a child accomplish something they didn't think they could do is the most rewarding part of my work. My approach blends Montessori, Waldorf, and nature-based philosophies into a seamless daily rhythm of crafts, outdoor exploration, and play. I'm also available for homeschool and enrichment support. Beyond childcare, I cook wholesome meals tailored to your family's needs and manage household operations so your home runs smoothly whether you're present or away. I am ABA and DBT trained, CPR and First Aid certified. I integrate quietly and completely into the life of the families I support, with the highest standard of care, reliability, and discretion.

I would give Jen six stars if I could. Jen is outgoing, positive and kind and yet can hold a boundary with a 2 year old like none other. I would rehire Jen in a heartbeat, and any family would be lucky to have Jen as their nanny.
