Hi there! My name is Alex and I have been a nanny since I was 17 years old. Since I started nannying, I have cared for different families with kids ages one year to eleven years old. I also have experience working at a preschool where I assist the teachers in taking care of kids ages 6 months-6 years old. Additionally I have been an Au pair in Australia where I lived there while caring for a newborn and a 3 year old. I have enjoyed the variety of experiences this job as provided to me. I love working with kids and helping them grow to be the best person they can be. I consider myself to be warm, loving, and patient. I feel that it is important to really listen to a child first, before assuming their needs.

Alex has been an invaluable resource for our family during a difficult time when travel out of the country was required for one parent leaving the other working parent behind to try and handle everything! Alex was able to come in to our family system and very quickly understood exactly what we needed connected immediately with our daughter and provided such a great level of care for her picking her up at bus stops taking her to activities helping her with homework cooking her dinner making her lunch at even bathing her before bedtime. I would say Alex went above and beyond and integrated with our family perfectly in a time we really needed her help! We continue to contact Alex when we need her assistance and she always does her best to see if she can make herself available to our family. I highly highly recommend Alex to anyone in the neighborhood who is looking for after school or after work help. She is awesome!

I met Alex and was instantly certain she would be amazing and I was right! My husband was skeptical about hiring someone off the internet... But on meeting Alex in person and explaining what I needed, I could just tell she was confident and competent, kind, and experienced and had a good head on her shoulders! My daughter instantly loved her and our dog eventually came around too (she is pretty picky!). Alex was early for her shift each day and did everything we asked of her. My husband was very impressed that she was able to bathe our daughter after swim class and clean up the kitchen... She stayed a lot later one evening than was originally intended and that was unexpected but she took it in stride. I really appreciated her help and will absolutely reach out to her again for assistance as required! Thank you Alex! Life saver!
