Connecting families with the best babysitters and nannies
Fantastic Sitters was created from a passion for taking care of children and their families. As a single caregiver, I could only help a few families at a time. With Fantastic Sitters, I am proud to connect countless families with the best babysitters and nannies in Western New York.
I’ve built a career around providing quality childcare for families.
My name is Jaclyn, and in my 22 years of experience as a nanny, teacher, babysitter, and regional director of a nanny agency, I have seen firsthand the importance of finding trusted, reliable, quality caregivers. I also understand that as a caregiver, finding families that are a great match, can be an ongoing long-term process. With several years of experience vetting and placing babysitters and nannies, I know the needs of each family and caregiver vary. Fantastic Sitters is here with a personalized approach to connect the best nannies and babysitters with each family.
My childcare journey
My journey with childcare began as a teen, providing care for families in my hometown. After graduating cum laude from Eastern Connecticut State University with degrees in Elementary Education and Visual arts, I went on to teach for several years. Throughout the years, I have worn many hats in daycare centers, summer camps, after-school programs, as a naturalist at a Vermont State Park, and as a lead child care provider for military family events.
The decades of caring for children in a variety of settings have shown me the value a fantastic caregiver holds in a child’s life. In Colorado, I found my calling as a Regional Director of a nanny agency. I connected with the best nannies and sitters for each family and provided placements in 13 states for hundreds of families. Fantastic Sitters was formed from the joy of connecting fantastic caregivers with great families.
In my spare time, you can find me hiking, practicing yoga, snowboarding, cooking, and spending time with my dog and family.
