Experience: 10 yrs
Hi :) I graduated from Long Beach State University with a B. A. in Child Development and Family Studies. I have been working with children for about 15 years. I love working with all ages and have had many years of experience working with infants through preschool age along with several years working with teens. I have had the opportunity to work with children in many diverse populations including; professional nanny, preschool teacher, elementary school literacy tutor and Behavior Interventionist, providing ABA therapy services to children with Autism, Caregiver and Substitute Instructional Aide for the severely disabled. Working with children is my passion. I love being outside and staying active as well as getting children interested in activities that do not include the TV! I also know baby sign language, beginning ASL and some Spanish as well.
We were so fortunate to have Lexy care for our daughter from about 6 months to 13 months old (June through November), and we truly can’t say enough wonderful things about her. From the very first day, Lexy brought not only warmth and kindness into our home, but also a remarkable level of professionalism and skill that made all the difference for our family. Both my wife and I are working professionals, and Lexy made our lives so much easier. She was always punctual, reliable, and communicative—never once late and always keeping us updated with pictures, notes, and thoughtful observations about our daughter’s day. Beyond just being dependable, she was genuinely delightful to have around—positive, patient, and full of energy. Lexy goes above and beyond typical childcare. She truly incorporates her background in Child Development and Family Studies into her care, creating a holistic and enriching experience for both child and parents. She introduced our daughter to baby sign language, which has been amazing for communication—our little one can now sign things like “more” and “help,” which has made daily life so much easier. With Lexy’s support, our daughter also started walking around 11 months! We loved that she kept our daughter engaged with creative, screen-free activities and plenty of time outdoors. It’s clear that working with children isn’t just a job for Lexy—it’s her passion. I was initially hesitant about the cost of hiring a nanny, but I can now say without hesitation that it was worth every penny. Lexy provided not just childcare, but real developmental enrichment and peace of mind for our family. We feel incredibly lucky to have found her and would enthusiastically recommend her to any family looking for a nurturing, educated, and dedicated caregiver.
