What Parents Say:
“She is special in
that she is great with children of very different age.”
“She kept our 4 year old daughter busy with crafts, projects, outdoor
activities, trips to the library and even perked her interest in outer
space and dinosaurs!”
“Janinne gave us real peace of mind in taking care of our children. It
was great to know that when I wasn’t around, the children were in such
good care.”
--Pam C.
We have known her for
three and a half years and have continually been amazed by her patience,
dedication and supreme competence in all matters of child care... Our
children look forward to our trips away, because they know they will
have so much fun with Janinne and the many activities and outings she
arranges...we know that the children are happily engaged in fun, "good"
activities (not marathon TV viewing) while we are gone, and that brings
a peace of mind that is impossible to price tag!
--Karin K.
Janinne excelled at
understanding the development needs of all three children and she bonded
very quickly and very
well with all of them. She was imaginative in working with them in
learning and other activities.--Alison M.
She stepped right into
existing play groups that [our son] regularly attended, found her way
around the neighborhood and joined the library! We highly recommend
Janinne, and would have asked her to stay had we not already hired
someone new-and had Janinne not already been committed to her new
business helping families in a pinch--like ours!
--Elizabeth B. & Chris M.
Janinne was extremely
organized, and planned and supervised everything to do with the kids,
including cooking, laundry, homework, shopping, extracurricular
activities, play dates, school events, piano, etc. She had a lot of
initiative and never needed to be told what to do. But most of all,
Janinne was warm and loving to the kids, who grew up feeling secure and
loved. She had a strong, lasting and positive influence on their lives.
--Wendy A.
I would highly recommend
Janinne for any kind of nanny position. She is very good at what she
does. In my opinion, she would be particularly adept at helping out in
crisis situations.... She exudes an air of stability that is very
comforting for children. --Anne L.
Janinne initiated a
number of clever arts & crafts projects as she was here during several
"bad weather" weeks and, hence, often confined to the indoors.
--Jennifer Z.
Janinne arrived on
the job with a myriad of interesting ideas that would appeal to our son
to insure that he was actively entertained and well-stimulated. Janinne
is very flexible and willing to plan the day in accordance with your
child's specific interests. --Erin M.
What Kids Say:
While my parents were
gone I had a great time! We went to parks, made clay stuff, and played
games. There was nothing we didn’t like about her being here. Our
favorite was going to the parks. We had a great time and she should come
back again.
--Lauren and Beth (age 12 & 10)
I like the way Janinne
took care of me. But I still miss my Mommy. Cause this is the first time
she has been gone for a long time. The first time Janinne and I made an
art project Janinne said, "As long as you are safe. [She was] willing to
do whatever I wanted." And so am I. --Adea (age 8)
I
liked making a garden, fishing and cooking things.
--Jesse (age 11)
