Hi I’m Alex! I am currently in between jobs and looking for the occasional sitting job, either during the day or for a date night. I'm located in the East Williamsburg area so looking for something nearby or a quick subway ride away. I'm comfortable with pets and am happy to help out with light housework, preparing snacks/lunch/dinner. Previously, I used Sittercity in Chicago and completed over 100 bookings with families of all sizes (and all ages!)

Alex was great! My kids are typically hesitant around new sitters but they were immediately at ease. When I asked my kids the next morning if they wanted Alex to come back they said “we love her!”

We are pretty flexible & understanding parents & enjoy our son being around all types of people but Alex did not bring a positive attitude into our home. First she text me letting me know she may be late, she was a few minutes behind, once showing up at the door my husband greeted Alex & she immediately asked for heartburn medicine... She was introduced to our son & did not show interest in him at all. I was trying to get a few things wrapped up in the kitchen My husband had to ask Alex to take Anderson from him., hold him, engage him. She seemed just a little aloof or aimless in what she was doing at our house. Prior to her arriving I did send instructions & reviewed them upon arrival. It didn't feel that she was comfortable with a child Anderson's age. She was letting him crawl laps up & down the hallway rather than playing or engaging with him. Almost every sitter we have through Chime is a absolute delight to meet bringing their likes & interests into our home sharing something new with us all. And singing, dancing, cooking, going outside whatever they find interesting they show Anderson. Our son woke up right as we were going to bed which is unusual and typically only happens when he was not put to sleep pleasantly. I changed is full diaper & got him back to bed. The nursery was not put back together & the dinner dishes from Anderson nor his bottles rinsed out or cleaned. I do not request this from the sitter but certainly have been spoiled by sitters who leave the house looking nicer than it was when they arrive making sure to straighten up the areas that we're used for playtime or meals.

Alex was great. She was prompt and began playing with our two year old son as soon as she arrived. Would definitely use her again.

We enjoyed Alex very much. She asked good questions to make sure the kids were well taken care of before we left for dinner. She played with them, got them a snack and put them to bed.

I never get sitters. I took a chance tonight. Alex was lovely. Arrive and became part of the family right away. My girls loved her. I kept her longer than requested and she was completely fine (but tired). My girls were happy and secure. I'll have her back!! Thank you Alex!!!

She was excellent. She even followed up the next day with something she had forgotten to tell me when I got home. I would definitely book her again.

Alex was very professional- she arrived early and although not necessary, asked in advance if it was ok that she brought dinner for herself. She was very timely in responding to my texts and calls. My year old says she was funny and would like to have her as a sitter again.
