A little bit about me
I have been working with kiddos for 4 years, as professional experience. I started caring for children at 13 yrs old. I now have my own 2 children. I love being their mom and spending time with them. My values are honesty, respect, love/compassion, and friendship. Everything I do is in the child's best interest and open communication is very important with parents.

"We met Glennycia through our sons daycare as she was one of his teachers. Since we met her we could tell how caring, attentive, and engaged she was with our son. She gave detailed notes on his progress—as if he were her own child. We don’t often need care providers at home but when we have we have only worked with Glennycia because we trust her! She is on time—early actually, and always has a smile on! Happy to answer any questions!"

"First off all I can say is wow. Renee was loved by my children. It was hard for all off us, especially the kids when Renee was no longer needed. We shortly found that she was worth every penny for many reasons. When it comes to the children, we have 4 and I can say that they can be a handful and at first my wife and I thought they may scare her off. Fortunately that is what drew her to our family. Renee had a way to earn respect and build trust to create a quality relationship with them in no time. It seemed to change the flow of our family from the fast paced on the go/work lives we were living by creating structure. She focused to make our lives easier but her main focus was the children. Renee ensured a safe and nurturing environment for the kids to thrive. She saw to feeding, bathing, dressing, supervising, helping with homework and additionally was responsible for light cleaning duties, laundry, grocery & dry good runs, run kids to appts. as needed, and more. We miss our Renee."

"I am delighted to recommend Helen, who cared for our daughter from age 1-3.
Our daughter has developmental delays and we regularly had three different therapists over. Without exception, those professionals commented on how impressed they were with Helen. More than once, they told us Helen was the best nanny they had worked with. Helen was very engaged with our daughter and helped reinforce developmental goals.
Helen was incredibly warm, patient, and built a wonderful relationship with our daughter. We always felt confident that our daughter was not only safe and cared for, but actively thriving under their supervision.
Helen was also highly responsible, dependable, and professional. Any family would be fortunate to have Helen caring for their children. They are a dedicated professional, an exceptional caregiver, and a genuinely wonderful person. I recommend them without reservation and would be happy to speak further about our experience."

A little bit about me
Hi everyone! I'm currently looking for a new nannying position to start at the end of August or beginning of September. I have 5 years of nannying experience with children ranging from 6 months to 12 years old, both in-home and in daycare settings. The past 2 years I have been working with children on the autism spectrum who have high support needs.
I pride myself on providing safe, fun and educational care, I love creating a supportive environment where kids can thrive. I'm hoping to find a long term family that needs around 25-30 hours a week. I do have a valid drivers license as well as my own vehicle and can provide references!
Let me know if you think we would be a good fit!

"I worked with Alexa across 2 different centers. She was wonderful to work with and great with the children. I saw her greatest strengths in the infant and toddler classrooms and she really seems to be a "Baby Whisper". She was always able to calm even the most difficult children and her "Gentle Parenting" way of teacher with the toddlers and older kept our classrooms full of love and positivity all the time."
