About Alexandra
Experience: 10 yrs

Outgoing and energetic mother of a 12. 5 yr old girl and aunt to 17 nieces and nephews. I've worked with children for 25+ years as a Private Childcare Provider, Head/Lead Teacher (infants, toddlers & pre-k), Nanny, Au Pair, Babysitter, Camp Counselor, Night Nurse and house manager. I have worked with all ages from Newborns to Teenagers as well as children with special needs & multiples. I have a Bachelor's in English, a CDA & ECE, I'm First Aid & CPR Certified for Infants, Children and adults, MAT certified, Allergen and Epi Pen Trained and I have my Lifeguard Certification for swimming supervision as well. I absolutely adore kids and love teaching them new things about the world, I am a big organizer, planner & multitasker and can help with a variety of tasks for the children such as light housekeeping, laundry, meal prep, transportation and sick care. I have great references to provide upon request, my own reliable transportation and I am flexible with my days & hours!

Alexandra is perhaps the best childcare provider I’ve ever hired. My son L. took to her immediately: within an hour of meeting her he was so comfortable and happy in her arms and tagged along through new activities (swimming!) and even a rough teething stretch. Alexandra was her warm, patient and kind self from the moment she walked through the door and for the duration of her entire time with us. She got to know everyone in the family (and even paid special attention to our older pup while L. was napping). She took the time to get to know our son’s schedule and family habits and gently made welcome suggestions whenever prompted. My only reservation in leaving such a glowing review is I know and hope she’ll be in such high demand next time we come out east that she won’t have time for us! She’s a gem.
