About Ana

Ana cared for our two sons from our oldest infancy through about age 4, and she became a steady, trusted presence in our home. She is warm, attentive, and genuinely engaged with children—she didn’t just “watch” them; she invested in them. She was consistently reliable and proactive. She handled daily routines with calm confidence (meals, naps, transitions, outings), and she was especially patient and thoughtful during tough toddler moments—staying regulated, setting kind boundaries, and helping the boys reset without escalating the situation. She’s also great at keeping kids meaningfully occupied: age-appropriate play, reading, creative activities, and plenty of movement, all with an eye toward development. Communication was another strength. She kept us informed without being alarmist, flagged issues early, and shared helpful observations about behavior, routines, and what was working. We always felt like we were on the same team. Most importantly, our kids adored her—and we trusted her completely. Any family would be lucky to have her. I recommend her wholeheartedly.
