About Me

*Currently only available for occasional babysitting, but will consider regular childcare on a Tuesday or Wednesday for the right family*

Whether you’re looking for a go-to babysitter for all of your occasions, or you’re only in town for a wedding or on holiday; let me be the safety net for your Littlies :)
My services include everything you would expect. I will keep your little ones safe, happy, fed and clean.
A balance of responsibility and fun is my specialty! I will always encourage good manners, self confidence, creativity and imagination.
Definitely fine with pets. The more the merrier!
I don’t mind household cleaning upon request for an additional fee.

A little about myself. I am a positive and energetic person with a passion for working with children and animals. I am from California originally. You’ll tell from my accent that I grew up there. I lived in New Zealand for 4 years, where I met my husband (who is from Shropshire). We moved to Shrewsbury in 2019. We just had a baby boy in January 2023!

Since moving to the UK I have worked as a nanny/babysitter for many local families. Happy to provide references upon request.
My long term goal is to teach in Early Years. I’m currently moving towards this goal by working as a TA in a local nursery, whilst studying for a Level 3 qualification in Early Years.

Please feel free to get in touch with any questions.

*Please note* It is my policy to exchange photo ID’s, such as a drivers licence, with name and address before accepting a new client. This is for the safety and security of all involved.

I hired Jenna for a day as babysitter when we attended a wedding. Jenna was kind and gentle with my baby, and my baby was happy. Jenna even captured my daughter's first proper giggle in a video! I'd definitely recommend Jenna's service.
Thank you Jenna.

Jenna looked after my 13 month old whilst I was at a wedding on site & I was able to pop back in as needed. Jenna was friendly, easy to deal with, professional & helpful. Ralph was very happy with Jenna. I would not hesitate to recommend Jenna to anyone

Jenna looked after my 8 week old newborn during my sisters wedding. She was lovely to deal with, great at communicating and arrived early! I was next door in the marque so able to check in on baby and always felt my baby boy was in good hands. Would highly recommend Jenna and use again in future!

Jenna has been great with our kids (son 4, twin girls 2). Our son keeps asking when she is coming back! Will absolutely be calling on her again.
