I also run a nanny share with several families, offering flexible scheduling and a more affordable option for high-quality childcare. I am currently looking for additional families to join!

Aleksandra is a wonderful, kind and experienced sitter. We had total peace of mind as first-time parents leaving our 5-month-old with a sitter for the first time. We're so thankful for Aleksandra's knowledge and ability!
