"Teacher Jayna was my girls' swim instructor. My children are very people cautious but they warmed up to her quickly. By the end of our 6 week session, Teacher Jayna was a constant mention in our household. With my children, Jayna was warm, patient and knew how to connect with them by playing games and making the swim session fun. We were sad when our time ended but will be back to look for her when we are ready to swim again."

More About Me

Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...

My experience in childcare began at a young age. I’ve been babysitting since I was 11 years old, and my passion for caring for children has only grown over the years. As a mother myself, I have raised a wonderful son, which has given me a deeper understanding of the joys and challenges that come with parenting. I bring this perspective to my role as a caregiver, ensuring that I create a nurturing, supportive, and fun environment for children.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

Art: I love engaging children in various art projects, encouraging self-expression and imagination.
Music and Dance: Music is a great way to connect with children, and I enjoy dancing and singing with them to promote physical activity and joy.
Exploring: I believe that exploration is essential for learning, whether it's through nature walks, visits to local parks, or hands-on science activities.
Reading: Storytime is one of my favorite activities, as it not only fosters a love for reading but also helps develop language skills.
Swimming: If the weather allows, swimming is a fantastic way to stay active and have fun together.

The most important part about being a nanny...

I am passionate about building lasting relationships with the families I work with. I believe that open communication is key to a successful caregiver-parent partnership. I encourage parents to share their expectations, preferences, and any specific needs they have for their children. I want to be an extension of your family, supporting your parenting goals while providing a safe and loving environment for your children.

My experience with special needs children...

I understand that each child has different needs, interests, and challenges. My experience with special needs children has taught me to be adaptable and to recognize the unique strengths of each child. I aim to foster independence and confidence, helping children overcome obstacles and achieve their goals.

The most important part about being a nanny...

My favorite nanny moments was when I heard my name for the first time from a child I cared for—it was such a heartwarming experience that truly highlighted the bond I strive to create with each child.
