Hi! My name is Aldana. For nearly a decade, I've dedicated myself to caring for children of various ages, from infants to teenagers. I specialize in handling newborns, twins, and children with special needs such as autism. Skilled in managing multiple kids simultaneously, I'm also pursuing a major in Montessori Early Childhood Education and Teaching, set to graduate in 2024.

I was going back to work and Aldana made this transition much easier for me and our family. She was very caring and attentive for our 4 month old son. She is a very warm and reliable person. Importantly, our son has torticollis and a flat head syndrome. Aldana did all the exercise recommended by physical therapies with our son. Thanks to that, his condition greatly improved and I'm extremely grateful for her diligent work with him. Our son and us are always happy to see Aldana.

Aldana is a wonderful babysitter! She worked for us regularly as an after-school sitter for ~ 1 year, and was a huge source of support and stability for our girls as they transitioned into middle school. Aldana is friendly, engaged, very organized, flexible, and an excellent communicator. She also had outstanding judgement when new things came up, which was very reassuring. She was able to supervise homework, playdates, and drive kids to/from activities as needed. I would highly recommend Aldana as a babysitter or nanny!

Aldana was fantastic with my newborn and entire family! She is an excellent communicator, respectful of our space, reliable and punctual. She has provided care for both my newborn and toddler and with both she was outstanding! I’d hire her again and recommend her strongly without reservation.

Aldana babysat for us two nights in a row while we were in town for a wedding. She took great care of our 15 month old son and my 5 month old niece. She was a pleasure to work with! She communicated well and was very responsive leading up to the event, and was very punctual. She gave both kids dinner/bottles and even got them to bed early so we could enjoy our night out. I would definitely hire her again if we were back in the area. Thanks Aldana!

We hired Aldana to babysit our 11 month old for a few days and she was so great with him! She's very comfortable and experienced with children and she kept him entertained all day. She was also very professional, on time, and responsive. We hope to work with her again in the future.

Aldana has babysat for our 14 month old twins multiple times now. She is very responsible - early to arrive and quick to respond to any communications I've had. She does a great job playing with the kids, prepping and cleaning for their meals and our children always enjoy their time with her. We definitely plan on continuing to have her help us going forward when we need help!

Aldana came to babysit my 8-month old son. She was great, and I liked that she was: timely, did tummy time w/ my son, took him on a walk, and read to him. Would hire again.

Aldana was a lovely sitter for our infant son. She was prompt, professional and communicative throughout. She obviously was very comfortable with infants (ours is 8 week old). Would 100% recommend her and would hire again :)
