Jana P.

My name is Jana, I’m 47 years old and a mother of two sons (aged 9 and 15), whom I’ve been raising from infancy through to adolescence. In addition to my own parenting experience, I regularly take care of my sister’s newborn daughter – which has once again confirmed how much I enjoy caring for young children.

I offer babysitting in a calm, kind, and respectful manner – with an individual approach and maximum understanding for the needs of both child and parent.
I support attachment parenting and natural childcare. I breastfed both of my sons for a long time, carried them in a sling or baby carrier, and use gentle ways to support immunity. I’m also open to homeopathy and natural approaches to healing. Respectful communication is second nature to me – I see children as independent beings and aim to offer them a safe space, trust, and encouragement.

I’m reliable, attentive, calm, and also creative. I love to play, do crafts, sing, go outside, read fairy tales, or talk about the world around us. I’m also happy to help with schoolwork – I teach patiently and with enthusiasm. I homeschool my younger son part-time, and I successfully helped my older son prepare for entrance exams to a multi-year grammar school and for the FCC English exam.

I offer babysitting to families looking for calm, respectful, and at the same time active support in their child’s development. Parents often say that their children feel safe with me – and never bored. I’d be happy to arrange an introductory meeting so we can see if we’re a good match.
