Meet Janell

Hi! My name is Janell Newkirk, and I’m an experienced mom of two busy, adventurous toddlers. As a stay-at-home mom, I’m passionate about creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for kids. I understand the unique needs of little ones, from managing routines to planning engaging activities that keep them happy and entertained. Outside of my children, my passion is studying to be a Full Spectrum Doula. What Sets Me Apart: • Hands-On Experience: I care for my own toddlers daily, which means I’m well-versed in multitasking, patience, and staying calm under pressure. I often care for three toddlers; my nephew and oldest are only 4 months apart. • Very Flexible Hours: With my husband working full-time from home, our household runs on teamwork, making it easy for me to accommodate and supervise your children. As I will have great flexibility to come and go as needed. • Safe & Read more Secure Environment: (if needed) If you are a family that would like for your little one to engage with others your child will be welcomed into a home where safety, structure, and warmth are top priorities. We have a child-friendly playroom and a spacious backyard. However, I am always available to care for your child in their home where they're most comfortable. What I Offer: • Age-appropriate activities to promote learning and play • Meal and snack preparation (nutritious and kid-friendly!) • Nap and bedtime routines as needed •. Before and after-school care •. Open communication to keep you updated throughout the day Let’s Connect! If you’re looking for a reliable, caring babysitter with real-life toddler expertise, I’d love to help! Contact me to discuss your needs and schedule. Looking forward to meeting your little one(s)!
