A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Aly, I have been a nanny in San Diego for more than 6 years (10 years total in multiple cities), mostly doing a nanny-share during that time. I am very energetic, love being outdoors and playing sports and believe in getting kids as much fresh air as possible! I have experience working with infants to elementary aged kids and very good with multiple kids (my last family I worked in a share with 5 kids between the two families). Unfortunately the youngest are starting pre school so I am looking to become a part of a new family! I look forward to talking with you and getting to know your family better!
