A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Jenna, and I’m a responsible, dependable, and caring person with experience working in fast-paced environments that require patience, communication, and attention to detail. I just graduated from the University of Kentucky and have a strong background in customer service and leadership through my previous jobs and internships. I genuinely enjoy being around people, creating positive experiences, and helping others feel comfortable and supported. I’m organized, trustworthy, and able to stay calm under pressure, which I believe are important qualities when caring for children. I would love the opportunity to help your family and create a fun, safe, and reliable environment for your kids.

A little bit about me

Hi!
My name is Bridgid and my favorite role in life is being “Aunt B” to my 9 nieces and nephews, 5 godchildren and many of my friends’ little ones! 🥰❤️🤗

I’m an Engineer by profession but have spent many years caring for children, from babysitting jobs to watching after my nieces and nephews, to eventually being a nanny myself for a sweet 1-yr old boy! 🥰

My true passion in life is childcare, and so I’ve stepped aside from the corporate world a few times over the years to pursue opportunities to work with children- both nannying and tutoring.

I’ve been back in the corporate scene for the past 3 years and find myself once again yearning to do something more purposeful in my life. I’ve felt called to get back into a job that serves children and their parents. ❤️

Best of luck with your search to find the right person for your family. If you think that I may be a good match, I would love to hear from you!

Kind Regards,
Bridgid Hogan
