Awesome Mommy’s Helper for overnight baby duty(some days too!)
When my 2nd set of identical twins were born 2+ years 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 loves babies so much and offered to help us in during the night. She was amazing with the boys. She has 2 children herself and is so sweet. She lives in Northridge and drives. 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 (and other Jens List members) as well that are willing to offer glowing references too! If you are a new mom or dad and need some sleep at night (or day!), call her to help at 818-687-6945. Feel free to email me too! Jen – jlev@jenlevinson.com
