About Laurie

Experience: 10 yrs

Hello Families, My name is Laurie , and I'm currently looking for a new nanny position. I bring over 25 years of experience in childcare, including 14 wonderful years with the same family, helping raise their children from infancy to adolescence. I'm deeply passionate about creating nurturing, engaging, and developmentally supportive environments where children feel safe, seen, and loved. I have a background in Early Childhood Education (City College of San Francisco), and my approach blends consistency, creativity, and emotional awareness. Whether it's supporting routines, guiding gentle discipline, or facilitating fun learning moments, I show up with heart and professionalism every day. If you're looking for a reliable, long-term nanny who truly becomes part of the family, I'd love to connect. Warmly, Laurie Alessandra

We hired Laurie for one month of full time nanny care before our daughter (14 months) started daycare. Laurie was incredible - she arrived each morning enthusiastic and ready to dive in (and always a few minutes early!) and our daughter lit up when she walked in the door. She is clearly such a natural with babies and children and quickly established rapport with our daughter, who is normally quite shy and slow to warm up to new people. Laurie also handled our rambunctious dog with ease and love. We very much hope to continue working with Laurie for babysitting and one-off nanny days moving forward - we feel SO lucky to have found her and trust our daughter in her care completely.
