Hello! I'm Anastasia, an avid adventurer, arts & crafts guru and fun-loving Nanny. I really like to get in touch with the kids and be on their level. I have been doing childcare off/on for 18+yrs and also have a younger brother (23) whom I helped raise. I love being around kids and helping them learn and grow. I believe that they are the greatest blessing. When the kids are happy, I'm happy

Ana took care of my son for about 9 months since he was 6 month old. She has a lot of patience and loved playing with our kid. She is very professional and friendly. What she did particularly well is to adapt our options and address concerns whenever we have some - we are the first time parents. Because of job relocation, we need to move on without her help. We are definitely still missing her!

Anastasia is fantastic and our daughter really loved her. We would always recommend her to family and friends. She is always responsive, dependable and on time. Anastasia helped us out for almost 2 years, from our daughter being 6 months old to almost 2.5 years. 

Anastasia worked as a full-time nanny for us over the past 18 months.  She joined us just as our daughter was turning 9 months old, when our former nanny decided to move back to the Midwest.  My husband and I were concerned that the transition might be a difficult one but our daughter took to Ana immediately -- within a day or two it was if Ana had been with us from day one much to our relief and delight.  With Ana's previous childcare experience, it was easy to see why our daughter thrived in her care.  We weren't looking for a babysitter, we were looking for someone who not only would take excellent care of all of our daughter's day-to-day child care needs such as feedings, changings, naps, etc., but someone who would interact with our child and help her to advance and achieve all of the milestones necessary and appropriate for her development.  Ana far exceeded our expectations as she quickly worked to create an engaging and consistent routine for our daughter, giving my husband and I peace of mind knowing our daughter was being well taken cared  and doing the activities and developmental things that my husband and I would have been doing with her if we could be with her throughout the day.  As our daughter has grown, we provided Ana with the necessary tools i.e. toys and educational materials, so she could continue to stimulate and engage our daughter with both fun and challenging learning activities.  We couldn't have asked for a more devoted, loving and qualified individual to care for our daughter.  It was always our intention that when our daughter turned two years of age that we would transition her from full-time nanny care to day-care so she could socialize with other children and begin to make the transition towards pre-school.  Our daughter has just reached that milestone and is now enrolled in a full-time daycare program.  Ana will forever be a part of our family and we will miss her as part of our day-to-day lives.  We give her the highest recommendation as a childcare provider whether for short or long-term childcare.

Anastasia has been working with our family for the past 6 months. Being a first time Mom, finding someone to look after your little one while you are away at work is a daunting task. Anastasia made the transition an easy one for me. She played with, cared for and loved my son as if it was her own. She followed our guidelines as parents and kept open communication with us in regards to anything and everything going on. Anastasia quickly became a part of our family. Our son adored her and looked forward to seeing her everyday. Unfortunately we had to move care further away and Anastasia can no longer nanny for us (due to the commute and longer hours). Even though we are losing her as our regular nanny we will still be using her as a babysitter because we can't imagine her not being in our lives. She cared for my son from age 6 months-12 months and kept him safe and happy. She would be a great addition to any family.

Anastasia has been caring for my grandchild in my home for the last six months while I work in another area of the home. She is a loving and nurturing caregiver and the bond between Anastasia and the baby was obvious. Each time I saw them together, he was happy and having a good time - either playing on the floor or sitting in her lap watching his favorite cartoon. Anastasia created a family-type atmosphere while here, and I know that my grandchild felt loved in her care. As far as I can recall, Anastasia has never called in sick, which was very much appreciated, because of my demanding job. Due to circumstances out of Anastasia's control, we've recently had to move the baby's care out of my house over to my son and daughter-in-law's home. She has been flexible enough to go to their home to watch him there when needed on occasion. Unfortunately the commute to their home is too far for Anastasia to go on a daily basis, so Anastasia has chosen to pursue another family to love. Consider yourself lucky if that family is yours.

We (our whole family) enjoyed having Anatasia be a part of our lives.  She is the type of caregiver who really is there for the kids and creates real bonds with the girls.
