About Paola

Experience: 4 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

Hi my name is Alejandra and I am from Colombia. I have been around the DMV area for almost four years now. I used to be an au pair for a family in Chevy Chase . I have four years of experience working with kids ( 6 months - 6YO ) I have done different tasks like bottle feeding, dipper changing, meal prepping, taking the kids to different activities dropping them off to school and picking them up. I also consider myself as a very fun and energetic person. I love kids and now I am looking for a position as a full time/ part time babysitter. I like doing different activities with them and play around. I speak Spanish and I have a Bachelor Degree in Spanish. I'd love to teach and practice the language with kids. I also love animals and I am comfortable being around any of your pets. I am fully vaccinated against COVID-19 I have excellent references if you need it. Thank you so much for your time, I am looking forward to hear back from you. Sincerely, Alejandra

Alejandra was wonderful with our daughter – patient, kind, and loving. She started with us when our daughter was only 6 months old and she helped us navigate all the milestones and changes (longer wake windows, transitions to solids, crawling to cruising and walking, etc.) with grace and often with very helpful suggestions. Our daughter is our first child and Alejandra was the first person other than immediate family to care for her, but she very quickly put us at ease. She cares for her as if she were her own and is very conscientious, making sure that she is safe, engaged, and gets to try new things. She drives, which is super helpful, and has taken our daughter to explore new parks, museums, and libraries. Alejandra also speaks fluent Spanish, which we asked her to speak to our daughter, and that has been amazing. She also speaks great English and, as you can see, has great references. We will definitely stay in touch with Alejandra and would love to see her connected with a great family.
