What drives my passion for caring for your little ones is witnessing children grow and flourish under my care. I believe every child has the potential to thrive, and I aim to create a nurturing and safe environment! I also have CPR/AED+ first aid certification. I am patient, friendly, and approachable, and I believe open communication is essential in any relationship, including those with parents. I follow the parents' preferred communication method to keep them updated about their child's day and address any issues promptly. When it comes to enforcing household rules, I adhere to the parents' guidelines. I understand that each family has its own set of rules, and I respect those. Consistency and fairness are important to me, so children know what to expect. I enjoy playing many games with children, having grown up with six siblings myself! My parents encouraged us to spend time outside and play board games, which I continue to enjoy with the children I care for. I
We feel incredibly fortunate to have found **Allycia**, whose presence in our home has been nothing short of transformative. From day one, she brought warmth, professionalism, and a remarkable sense of calm that made our children feel instantly comfortable and secure. Her ability to balance nurturing care with playful engagement is truly impressive. Whether she’s organizing creative activities, patiently navigating toddler tantrums, or helping with school prep, she does so with unwavering kindness and intuition. Our children absolutely adore her—and so do we. What sets Allycia apart is not only her dependability and impeccable work ethic, but also her ability to anticipate needs before we even voice them. She’s a proactive communicator, a thoughtful problem solver, and always treats our family’s routines and values with genuine respect. Having Allycia in our lives has lifted an enormous weight off our shoulders. She’s not just a nanny—she’s become a trusted extension of our family. We recommend her without hesitation to anyone seeking a caring, competent, and truly extraordinary caregiver.
