I have over 20 years of babysitting experience (and have references). I specialize in infants (& multiples). Feel free to text me at (480) 812-5771 if you'd like to meet. I have been babysitting since I was 11 (regular job every day after school and weekends). As a college student, I really missed children so I quit my “real job” and signed up to be on UCLA’s babysitting list (and babysat for many families). ;) I babysat overnight for four children for up to ten days at a time (while their mother joined their father on business travel). I love to stay with the same family, so I babysat for one family for 10 years (even after I graduated & until I got married, watching a 5 year old and then 2 siblings from birth until 5 & 10 years). After raising two children of my own, I worked as Read more a nanny specializing in newborns and multiples. I had three children who were 2 and under in my care (a two year old and newborn twins). I love children and emphasize learning and development. I believe in helping children to grow in all aspects. As such, we do imaginative play, building, physical exercise, singing, dancing, arts & crafts, board games, walks, park & playground visits, field trips (if permissible), and tons of reading. I’m a proponent of educational toys and I use playtime as a learning opportunity (colors, shapes, numbers, letters, etc.). From birth, I talk to the babies, constantly describing their surrounding, telling them what activities I am engaging in, etc. I am quite experienced in care of all ages, but especially the involved care of newborns (changing, feeding, burping, bunting, teaching to self-sooth, helping to put on a schedule, etc.). I can also help with nursing, pumping, etc. I have worked with autistic children (with Dr. Lovaas at UCLA), providing behavior modification & speech therapy. I am patient, compassionate, kind, loving (I might get a little too attached; I miss the children when I am off on the weekend!), and adopt the child-rearing philosophy of the parents that I work for. I prefer to be organized and to have structure & discipline. I am reliable and punctual, too. Thank you, Jennifer
