Hi! My name is Alexa. I have over 10 years of hands-on experience as a nanny, starting with caring for family members, friends' children, and later extending to families in the community and through this platform. I hold a Bachelor's degree in Social Work from Mercy University and I'm currently preparing to return for my Master's in Social Work as well as a Master's in Disaster Resilience. I also work in the nonprofit sector and previously worked as a clinician within this sector, where I supported unaccompanied minors, an experience that has deeply enriched my understanding of children's emotional and developmental needs. I approach every childcare role with empathy, patience, and a whole lot of heart. Whether it's reading together, creating crafts, going on nature walks, or helping with routines, I strive to be not just a caregiver, but a positive role model and dependable support system for your child. I'd love to speak more about how I can support your family!
We struck gold with Alexa. She’s been with our family since our first was just 3 months old, and now, through baby number two (currently 7 months), she’s been a steady, dependable presence we can always count on. She seamlessly handles everything—from bottles to solids, toddler meals to playground adventures—while somehow keeping everyone happy, fed, and entertained. Alexa has that rare ability to anticipate both kids’ and parents’ needs, and she’s flexible without missing a beat. She’s the kind of sitter you can trust completely, which is why we’re tempted to keep her all to ourselves. If you’re lucky enough to hire her, don’t book her too much—we still need her!
