When my 2^nd set of identical twins were born 20 months ago, we needed some extra help in the house at night. Jeny, is the niece of our old nanny, so I knew her very well.

She has been in the country for about 7 years(or so) and did not learn English until she got here, but given that, her language skills are VERY impressive. Not only has she worked for us, but many of my friends as well that are willing to offer glowing references too! If you are a new mom or dad and need some sleep at night, call her to help! 818-687-6945. Feel free to email me too! Jen – jlev@jenlevinson.com
