Hi! My name is Alex Picker, however all of my friends call me Lexie. I have over thirteen years of experience working with children of all ages and have impeccable references. I have completed two Bachelor degrees in Psychology and Theatre and am certified in both CPR and First Aid. I am looking to stay with a family long term. Please contact me if you’re interested in a nanny whose fun, loving , caring and responsible. I live in Stamford, CT, so I am looking for work around there or around that area. Keeping children happy and safe is my number one priority. I keep them under a watchful eye and always make certain they avoid dangerous situations. I am well versed on all COVID-19 protocols, have had two recent negative tests, and have my flu shot. I am good at helping children follow rules and encourage them to clean Read more up after themselves while I help them do so. With that said, having fun is also a top priority for me. I love arts and crafts, sports, outdoor actives, dance, theatre, reading and games. I also have experience working in the school systems and am very comfortable with technology. I prepare excellent meals for children and take into account all dietary requests and requirements. I also clean, do laundry, and sew. I make certain children follow set schedules and take naps so they are well rested. If allowed by the family, I like to schedule fun outings to parks, pools, zoos, libraries, and museums so the children can see their community and all it has to offer them. If you are looking for a nanny who is extremely compassionate, nurturing, intelligent, creative, active, punctual, responsible, organized, and fun, then look no further. I have my own car, am a huge pet lover, love sports, and just adore kids. I charge between $20-$30 depending on the job and the amount of hours. I can forward you my resume and my references if I sound like someone you would be interested in speaking with further.
