Hello, My name is Alexandra, I’m 51 a semi retired masters level social worker. I have about 30+ years of experience. focused jobs and be able to work with kids in a more organic way. I am known to be silly, conscientious, reliable and very compassionate. I truly enjoy being with kids of all ages and find it meaningful to help them experience the world in thoughtful, creative, playful and secure ways. I try to make things seem like an adventure and address conflicts as opportunities for growth. I am also very good with infants and have experience with sleep training. I see my job as being both a coach and a mama bear. If anything does arise I am extremely well trained, calm and focused in an emergency. I’ve been CPR and First Aid trained for over 30 years. As a parent and family social worker I have learned many effective behavior management techniques for kids ages birth to 100. I believe it's extremely important to provide each family the specific care they want and to honor the norms, needs and values of the household.The most important thing to know about me as a childcare provider is that I will take care of your children, pets and household the way you want me to. I believe taking responsibility for the well-being of any child means you always put them first. Choosing the right person to care for your child and trust them in your home is the most important decisions a person can make. I welcome any and all kinds of questions or requests and can make myself available for online interviews at your convenience. Thank you for your consideration. Sincerely, Alexandra Sagov MSW

Hi, my name is Ali Machinski and I have been working with children since I was a child myself. I grew up in a daycare and my love for kids began there. I’ve been a nanny for a family of three, worked 5 years as a counselor, sub teacher, and many other tasks within that position as well as running an infant classroom.

I have several years of hands-on experience working with children across educational, healthcare, and caregiving settings. As a former assistant teacher at a preschool, I guided young learners through creative play, structured lessons, and daily routines, ensuring they felt safe, encouraged, and understood. I also work daily with children as a trained dental assistant, helping them feel comfortable during appointments and explaining procedures in a gentle, age-appropriate way. My experience as a dance teacher has also strengthened my patience, communication, and ability to connect with children of all personalities. I am a college student majoring in dental hygiene with a minor in public health, and I am seeking flexible part-time work that fits my academic schedule. I truly miss being around children and enjoy creating fun, safe, and engaging environments. Caring for kids has always brought me joy, and I would love to continue building meaningful experiences while supporting families in the community. I am responsible, warm, and reliable, and I genuinely love helping children learn, grow, and feel supported.
