My name is Jennifer Sinicrope and I live in the Austin Texas area with my husband and 5 boys.
I began my career in the childcare business at a very young age. I babysat from the age of 9 years old and at 17 years old I obtained my first nanny position. I continued as a career nanny until my first son was born. When he was just 20 months old I gave birth to triplets. I had nothing to go on but advice from others and unfortunately none of it worked well for my family. When my little ones were just 7 months old I began to care for my girlfriends 2 month old twins. Yes, that's right.....5 babies. It was out of desperation for my own sanity that I began to analyze my own situation very closely and how my tactics for sleep training / scheduling began to develop. At the time I was Vice President of my Mother's of Multiples organization and people began to "talk" about my talent with sleep training / scheduling babies. It was through that group that I obtained my first "real" client. I was so thankful for the opportunity to give my "data" a real test. I sleep trained their premature triplets hands on for 8 weeks. Everything worked like a charm and I was able to obtain new "data" as well. From that point on I was booked solid. In fact, that first year I didn't have one single day off.
I truly love what I do and get a real joy from watching my techniques work with so many different babies. I have worked with singletons through triplets. I also have experience with various medical issues. No two babies are alike and I recognize that. That is why my techniques are specific to each client. I had baby #5 this past May and I can honestly say even he gave me a tough time and I had to re-evaluate things several times due to his pre-maturity and severe reflux.
Babies don't come with "manuals" and unfortunately what worked for your best friend or your mother may not work for you. That is where I come in. I have spent nearly 10 years and countless hours devising sleep tactics and scheduling for even the most stubborn of babies.
