A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Clara Witt, and I bring over 10 years of hands-on childcare experience to the families I work with. As one of ten siblings, caring for children has been a natural part of my life for as long as I can remember. From infants to school-aged kids, I’ve had the opportunity to support children at every developmental stage. Whether that means bottle-feeding and nap schedules, or planning creative activities and helping with homework.

My background includes a wide range of nannying and babysitting roles, from casual evening care to more structured, long-term positions. I’m known for being warm, dependable, and tuned in to each child’s individual needs. I value routines, encourage independence, and love to create engaging, age-appropriate activities that support growth and learning. Whether working with newborns or energetic toddlers, I bring patience, playfulness, and a strong sense of responsibility to every role.

A little bit about me

Hi I am Jenni!

I’ve been babysitting since I was 10, and currently am looking for a new wonderful family! I started nannying/house managing at 19. I absolutely love what I do and I also love all animals so I’m happy to help with yours too!

I have MANY references and look forward to adding another sweet family to my life!


I am 46, a non-smoker and my records are squeaky clean. I’m extremely punctual and reliable. I am happy to get certified (or re-certified) in anything you would like! Please reach out with any questions etc! Tons of references available. I’m looking for a four day a week position, up to 40 hours a week but I am flexible! I would love to find a family for the long term!

I’m a pretty decent chef, and have enjoyed making vegetarian meals for the most recent family I worked with. I would be happy with a position that is mainly meal prep and some nannying mixed in! I’m open to anything for the right fit/family.

I look forward to hearing from you!
