About Jill

Experience: 10 yrs

Hello! My name is Jill. I am 27 years old, and have been babysitting for 10 years now. I have babysat a range of ages from 6 months old-13-year-olds. I just finished up my 4th year as a fourth grade teacher. I have my Bachelor's Degree in Elementary Education, and my Master's Degree in Special Education. I'd describe my personality as caring, humorous, and fun. I like working with kids because I love having a positive impact on their development and childhood. I started working with kids when I was 17 years old, and have not stopped. Even before then I would always be helping my aunt with my two young cousins. Now, I work with 9-10 years olds everyday as a teacher, and babysit for my friend's babies. In my spare time, I like to listen to audiobooks, go on walks, and spend time with family & friends. My skills include creating a safe space for children, setting clear expectations, and keeping a positive attitude always.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about our babysitter. From the moment she cared for my infant, I knew my baby was in the most loving and capable hands. She is incredibly gentle, kind, patient, and genuinely caring. As a parent, there is nothing more comforting than knowing someone treats your child with the same warmth and tenderness that you do, and she absolutely did. She went above and beyond to make my baby feel safe, happy, and loved, and she gave me complete peace of mind every time I left. Her sweet nature and genuine love for children shine through in everything she does. She is truly the best babysitter we have ever had, and our family feels so lucky to have found her. Any family would be beyond fortunate to have her care for their children. She is simply one of a kind.
