About Alex
Experience: 10 yrs
Hi! I'm Alex. I have over 10 years of experience working with kids as a nanny, youth program leader, and coach. I studied Sociology, which shapes my approach to care with empathy and understanding. I manage school pick up and drop off, daily activities, household tasks, meals, potty training, sibling support, and family schedules, including out-of-town trips. When I am not working I love hiking, camping, kayaking, training dogs, reading, and exploring art in many mediums. I bring creativity, curiosity, and fun to every activity, helping kids learn responsibility while encouraging imagination and joy. Families describe me as dependable, patient, and kind, and I take pride in creating a safe, supportive environment for children to grow!
Most recent review
We absolutely loved having Alex as our nanny! From the very beginning, her warm, loving, and happy energy made a wonderful impact on our family. She quickly built a strong bond with both of our children—our one-year-old son and our eight-year-old daughter—and was able to connect with each of them in meaningful, age-appropriate ways. Alex is incredibly attentive, engaged, and fun. She kept both kids entertained and cared for, always finding creative and thoughtful ways to meet their individual needs. Whether it was imaginative play with our toddler or meaningful conversations and activities with our older child, Alex made sure both felt supported and loved. She was also incredibly reliable and flexible. From school drop-offs and pick-ups to playdates at the zoo and other outings, her adaptability and commitment were invaluable to us. We felt so lucky to have Alex during such an important time in our children's lives, and we were truly sad when our youngest transitioned into school and our time with her came to an end. Any family would be fortunate to welcome Alex into their home—she is a truly exceptional nanny.
