A little bit about me

Hey!
I'm Alex, a vibrant 32 year old from Grand Rapids, and I'm on the lookout for an amazing family to join as a part-time nanny. A bit about who I am: My passions include whipping up dishes from Bon Appetit, nurturing my houseplants, and indulging in the endless entertainment on Bravo.

I'm currently embracing the student life again, pursuing my degree in Computer Information Systems through online courses at Ferris State. This exciting journey not only fuels my love for learning but also gifts me with a super flexible schedule – perfect for nanny duties!

Work History: Flashback to 2015: I was the proud nanny to an adorable one-year-old girl, a role I cherished for nine beautiful months. Since then, I've been the go-to auntie, playing a big part in my niece's and nephew's lives.

So, if you're seeking a nanny with a heart full of warmth, a dash of tech-savvy, and a knack for creating laughter-filled days, I'd love to be part of your family's journey!

Warm wishes,
Alex 🌿✨

I have had the pleasure of working with Alex since 2019 after the birth of my first child and continuously since we welcomed our second child in 2021. Alex has been a constant presence and support in our lives and our children love her deeply. Since working with Alex, she has exhibited a wide range of skills while building strong bonds with our family. Alex was able to quickly master our specific childcare needs. Alex’s compassion, bright mind, inquisitive nature, and unwavering commitment to helping has enabled her to achieve success in working with our family. Alex is truly unique in her ability to empathize and establish rapport with families who come from diverse backgrounds. I have rarely seen a person so passionate about learning and helping others. As you can tell, I hold Alex in very high regard and therefore can confidently recommend her to work with any family and enhance her already impressive skillset."
