Hey there, thanks for taking the time to view my profile. If you are looking for a reliable nanny that you can call day or night then I am the girl for you. For the past two years I have been working developing software but for two year before that I was a nanny for an amazing family helping to take care of their two young boys (they are now 8 and 11) and I loved and enjoyed every second of it. We are still very close, but unfortunately they no longer need a nanny so here I am! I'd like to start by telling you about the responsibilities that I had with my previous nanny family, just so you can understand my expertise and skills. I picked up the boys from school each day and provided a healthy snack before charting them off to their after school activities. Once Read more we are home I helped with homework as well as helped to teach the boys multiple musical instruments. Each night I cooked a very healthy (mostly vegan) home cooked meal, and then it's time for bath and lights out! On our less busy days we loved to spend time making lots of creative projects, or we would play outside when it's not raining - and sometimes even if it was raining. As well as my responsibilities with the boys I would take care of my "nanny family's" lovely pitbull-lab mix. Each week I would bring Vida home and give her some much needed play time with my little pug, Barbra. I have absolutely loved the past two years with this family and am so sad to be saying goodbye (though it's not goodbye forever, as I am right down the street). If you have any other questions for me, please write me an e-mail. I have years of experience nannying and babysitting and am looking to find the right fit and to start another loving and committed relationship with the right family. Thanks so much for reading my profile and I look forward to chatting with you!

Alex is our regular after-school Nanny. My boys adore her. She is reliable, fun, and has a very positive attitude. She is great at managing chaotic little-boy energy. And she even gets the boys to eat some vegetables.
