  About Me
 
Hello,

My name is Jenna. This post really jumped out at me, and I believe I d be a good fit for your family. I am 23 and have a Bachelor's degree in psychology. I specialize in child therapy in grad school at The Chicago School of Professional Psychology. Children are my passion and I am excited to find a nannying job where I will be able to fit right into a family. I have 10 years experience working with kids (including infants, special needs, and multiples). I am attentive, responsible, dependable, enthusiastic, nurturing, and fun. I love music, singing, art, yoga, traveling, going outside. I currently nanny a 1 1/2 yr old but the mother is finishing grad school soon so won't need me anymore. I am reliable and flexible.

I would be ready to start late April or early May and could commit to at least a year.
