Hi family. My name is Jennifer ¡it's a pleasure to meet you! I would like to tell you a little about myself. I'm Colombian and y have been in Melbourne for two months such as English student. I was born in a simple and small family that gave me a lot of love as an only child. From a young age, my parents instilled in me the fundamental values that still govern my personality, where respect for others is paramount. Currently, I consider myself a happy, sensitive, tender, trustworthy and empathetic woman. In my adolescence, I used to help my little cousins with their homework and I helped the babies that came to the family by changing their diapers and feeding them with their bottles. In addition, at school I did social work with fifth grade girls between the ages of 9 an 11, providing school support and different educational activities. Then, while I was studying at university, I did a few weeks replacement as a baby sitter for two children aged 3 and 5 old. Although it was a very short experience, I found it enjoyable and enjoyed taking care of them. I'm good at crafts and I love dancing and singing because I'm fascinated by music, in my free time I enjoy outdoor activities such as hiking which allows me to share active and healthy moments with the children. I'm available Monday to Friday from 8:00 am to 4:00 pm

Hi there Mums & Dads.... I am your Mary Poppins!! I currently look after a few families however my calendar has opened for either a Wednesday OR a Thursday for a new family in 2025. I commit to long hour and long term commitment for the year with all of my families. It's important. Currently I cover ages 8 months, 12 months, 2.5 years, 4.5 years and 9 & 11 years olds. I understand the variety of changing developments in children and adapt to these needs. I love children and have looked after them across many stages of my entire life, as a local babysitter since I was 14 years old and up until now as a professional nanny for parents who are doctors, solicitors, engineers, school teachers, marketing specialist and even a CEO. Having a person of a mature age can provide some enormous benefits to both parents and children. I know life well and in very deeply different ways. I have an extensive understanding of the impact a moment or day in time can have on a child. Being there to pick up on these signals is very important. Recognising and sensing these subtle shifts need an awareness that comes with human development, of which I have covered extensively. Keeping a child calm and happy is important and to have skills that remove the stress and anxiety is about the energy from the nanny/babysitter. To become relaxed and connected/engaged with a mature age carer can offer great comfort to any child. The love will always be there. I follow routines and set boundaries, (initiated from the parents) for all children because it creates security and trust with them. I participate in both home and outdoor activities and excursions. I can drive my own car (petrol charges incur) or use any parents' cars. I cover household cleaning (light house work: all things kids mess, upkeep where possible in the laundry area, keep kitchen clean) to take the burden away from parents so they can come home to a cleaner environment than perhaps they left it. This is always discussed in detail for any family because I am not a 'house cleaner' I am a Nanny. I am extremely reliable and punctual to enable all parents to relax knowing I will always be there for them. I look forward to hearing from you. Nanny Clare
