Experience: 12 yrs
Fostering children's growth and development is my true passion. With 12 years of child care experience and a background as a doctoral student in clinical child psychology, I offer a professional, warm, and calm approach to childcare. I hold CPR Training and have completed extensive Early Child Development Coursework. Whether we are playing sports, working on puzzles, or exploring musical instruments, I tailor my activities to match your child's unique interests. I am comfortable enforcing household rules through positive reinforcement, ensuring children feel guided and supported. I am happy to assist with meal preparation, carpooling, and light housekeeping. I prioritize clear communication, providing updates through your preferred method. I am eager to bring my expertise and genuine care to your family, helping your children thrive every day.
I cannot recommend Ally highly enough! From the moment she started caring for my children, I knew they were in the best hands. Her genuine love for kids shines through in everything she does, and it's clear that caring for children isn't just a job to her, but rather something she's truly passionate about. I have a very rambunctious 4 year old boy, and he absolutely adores Ally. He gets so excited whenever he knows she's coming over! She is incredibly engaged during playtime, always keeping him entertained, active, and having fun. On top of that, she's happy to cook, clean up, and help however she can, which is such a huge relief as a parent. What impresses me even more is how amazing she is with my 6 month old as well. She is patient, nurturing, attentive, and completely comfortable caring for both children at the same time. It's not easy to find someone who connects so naturally with kids of such different ages, but Ally does it effortlessly. The greatest compliment I can give is that I never worry when my children are with her. I know they are safe, loved, and receiving the very best care. Any family would be incredibly lucky to have Ally care for their children. She is truly one of a kind, and I recommend her without hesitation!
