My name is Alexandra, and I’m currently looking for a full-time nanny position with a wonderful family. I’m based in Mohegan Lake and have over 10 years of hands-on childcare experience with children ranging from infants through school age. I’m currently working with a family caring for three children (18 months, 5, and 7), where I balance toddler development with busy school schedules, activities, and household management. I love creating a calm, structured, and nurturing environment while keeping kids engaged through educational play, creativity, and outdoor activities. Due to a recent change in my current family’s financial circumstances, they will no longer need full-time care, so I am beginning my search for a new position. My experience includes: • Infant care, milestones, and sleep routines • School-aged support including homework help and activity planning • Household management (laundry, organization, meal prep, scheduling, errands) • Safe transportation to/from school and activities Read more • Strong communication with parents and proactive household support I also have a background as an Assistant Director and Infant/Toddler Teacher in a daycare setting, where I managed staff, supported child development, and ensured a safe, enriching environment for all children. I’m CPR/First Aid certified, MAT trained, and have experience working with children with special needs. I hold a Bachelor’s in Behavioral Sciences and a Master’s in Human Resource & Management. I’m happy to provide excellent references from the families I’ve worked with, many of whom I’ve supported long-term. They can speak to my reliability, professionalism, and the strong, trusting relationships I build with both children and parents. I truly love what I do and take pride in becoming a trusted, reliable support system for the families I work with. If you or someone you know is looking for a dedicated, experienced nanny, please feel free to message me—I’d love to connect!
