Janna J. - Highlands Ranch Babysitter A nanny in Highlands Ranch, CO 80130

I'm a fun, organized, and happy nanny. I have worked with all ages from newborn to teens with excellent references from all of their parents.   I received my degree in Early Childhood Education in May '07 and I'm current in CPR/First Aid/Universal Precautions. I have loved caring for children as long as I remember.

I started to baby sit at 12 and became a professional nanny at 22. I drive a safe SUV with ample, always installed infant/toddler seats and provide pickup/drop-off service when needed. I conveniently live off University Blvd in Highlands Ranch.

I am a mother to Sam, my 4-yr old daughter and have taught her many basics such as colors, shapes, numbers, and the alphabet - the same rudiments I teach all of my charges. I teach beginning addition/subtraction, alphabet, and vocabulary.  We do crafts and outdoor time in the backyard where I have a swing set, sandbox, two playhouses, play structure, teeter totter and jungle gym.  We have tons of age-appropriate toys, games, and books. I have two toddler beds and two pack-n-play for naps/overnights. I provide healthy meals/snacks, diaper & wipes, and complete care (baths, dinners, etc) for overnites.

My philosophy is to always introduce children to new concepts.  I believe that children learn through creative play but also need structure to better prepare them for going into grade school and beyond.

I'm active in many nanny sites and local nanny groups for the sharing of new ideas,  arranging play dates, and overall continuous education in the field of child care. I also subscribe to Parents, Parenting, Family Fun, Parent & Child, Working Mother, Disney Princess, & Cookie.

I look forward to meeting your family.
