A little bit about me

Hello families! My name is Alexa, and I combine strong professional achievement with hands-on childcare experience. I hold both a J.D. and LL.M. from Cornell Law School, graduating with Ivy League distinction. Beyond my legal career, I’ve cared for children across all stages of development. As an au pair, I looked after two boys (ages 8 and 14), supporting their daily routines, schoolwork, and activities. At home, I’ve also helped raise my younger half-sister since infancy—she is now 2 years old—giving me direct experience with babies and toddlers. In addition, I am fluent in Italian, French, and Spanish, and enjoy sharing language and culture with children through stories and play. Parents describe me as responsible, trustworthy, and caring. I love engaging kids with creative activities, learning, and outdoor fun, while also providing structure, homework help, and healthy meals. I’d be delighted to support your family with reliable, nurturing care.

More About Me

Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...

As an au pair, I cared for two boys, ages 8 and 14, supporting their daily routines, schoolwork, meals, and activities. I have also helped raise my younger half-sister since birth—she is now 2 years old—giving me hands-on experience with infants and toddlers. These roles have given me practical childcare experience across a wide age range, from newborn through teenage years.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I enjoy creative play, arts and crafts, reading stories, and outdoor adventures like walks or playground time. I also love introducing children to new languages through songs and games, helping with homework, and cooking or baking simple, healthy meals together.

The most important part about being a nanny...

The most important part about being a nanny is creating a safe, nurturing, and reliable environment where children feel loved, supported, and encouraged to grow. It’s not just about supervision—it’s about building trust, fostering confidence, and being a positive role model in their daily lives.

The most important part about being a nanny...

My favorite nanny moment was as an au pair when the 8-year-old I cared for proudly read me a book he had been struggling with. Seeing his excitement and confidence grow—and knowing I had helped encourage him—was incredibly rewarding.
