About Alexandra
Experience: 15 yrs
hi! I'm Alex. I'm from NYC and I've been nannying on and off since I was 18 (that's 16 years!). I worked with my last family since 2016 and still see them regularly. I love spending time with inquisitive, young minds! I believe in a perfect balance of letting children have their independence, but also guiding them to grow into their best selves. I've worked in healthcare for years (medical-surgical tech!) so I have endless patience, and know a thing or two about scrapes and bruises. I like to laugh, read, explore, teach, and learn. I'm detail-oriented, empathetic, and always looking to enrich and listen to children so that they can be heard, and feel endlessly confident and happy. will gladly watch pets (I have a cat and have had dogs!) as well as do light housekeeping/errands to make your life easier. I have a safe car as well. happy to answer any and all questions! references available upon request.

Alex organized various activities, from museum visits to recreational outings, making each day enjoyable and enriching. Her professionalism, kindness, and maturity were greatly appreciated. We highly recommend Alex for any childcare position; she exceeded our expectations and positively impacted our family.
