Hello families, My name is Alexandra, and I am a 27-year-old bilingual nanny/Babysitter (English & Spanish) with over five years of experience caring for infants, toddlers, and school-aged children. I recently became a mom to a beautiful baby boy, which has deepened my understanding of infant care, routines, safety, and the emotional needs of both children and parents. I truly believe nannying is more than just a job—it is something I do with love, patience, and intention. I genuinely enjoy working with children and understand the important role caregivers play in supporting their development, confidence, and overall well-being. I hold a bachelor’s degree in Psychology/Social Work and view childcare as a meaningful foundation for my long-term goal of supporting children and families. I have experience nannying in both Chicago and the suburbs, including full-time care, babysitting, overnights, and temporary positions. I also have daycare experience, which strengthened my ability to Read more manage routines and create safe, engaging environments. I am CPR/First Aid certified and hold additional certifications in DCFS training, SUID/SIDS, Child Development, Health & Safety, and Food Handling. I have a valid driver’s license, a reliable car, and enjoy planning enriching activities such as park outings, museums, zoo visits, and playdates. Families describe me as dependable, loving, patient, and flexible. I would be honored to support your family and care for your little ones. Warm regards, Alexandra
