Hi! I have a bachelors degree in Early Childhood Education and 15+ years of experience working with children. I believe in constructivist theories for teaching and learning, practice gentle parenting techniques and have been described as a nurturing caregiver. I started working with infants in 2008, and I fell in love with caring for children. I also have experience as a Preschool teacher, private nanny and was Founder and former Director of a Child Development Center. I have a 2-year-old daughter and love spending my days with her. Last year, I provided part-time, in home care for one child, the same age as my daughter. I am currently looking for part-time work with a family that is comfortable with me bringing my daughter along. There are times she could stay with my husband. I have a fairly open, flexible schedule. I have reliable transportation and enjoy taking children on outings to the park, library, zoo, open gym play time, etc. I can provide a list of references, upon request.

We hired Ally to pick up our daughter, and after a couple of conversations, we were impressed by her extensive childcare experience and her ability to effectively communicate her approach. This immediately put us at ease knowing she would be alone with the kids. Ally's friendly and amiable nature instantly connected with our daughter, who is typically reserved around other adults. Ally's exceptional communication skills with children helped our daughter quickly warm up to her. Having Ally assist with childcare has been a great addition to our family's support system.
