Experience: 9 yrs
Nine years of experience caring for children has solidified my passion for creating a positive and nurturing environment. My previous babysitting roles sparked a desire to make a real impact on young lives, and I enjoy supporting families by providing reliable care. I am patient, creative, and friendly. I prioritize clear communication and always following your preferred method. I am comfortable enforcing household rules. I enjoy playing outdoor sports, board games, and educational games that promote learning. I am comfortable caring for one or more children and am willing to help with cooking, light housekeeping, and travel. I'm excited to meet your family and learn how I can help your child thrive.
We feel incredibly fortunate to have had Alana as our nanny for our family. She cared for all four of our children from infancy through their current ages, and she has truly been an extension of our family during those years. Alana has experience with every stage of childhood — from newborn care, bottles, naps, and managing multiple little ones (including twins) to school-aged routines, homework help, and school projects. She handled daily logistics seamlessly, including driving to and from school, activities, and doctor’s appointments, preparing meals, and keeping everyone on schedule. Safety was always her top priority. Whether supervising at the pool, traveling with us, or staying overnight when needed, we trusted her completely. She is calm, steady, and incredibly dependable in any situation. What sets Alana apart is her balance of warmth and structure. She brings a positive presence to the home while also maintaining clear expectations and consistency. The kids love her deeply and, just as importantly, respect her. She has a natural ability to create a nurturing environment while reinforcing good manners, responsibility, and kindness. Alana has been an invaluable part of our children’s lives and development, and any family would be lucky to have her. We recommend her without hesitation.
