A little bit about me

Hi families! I’m Ayla, a Montessori educated nanny with experience caring for children from infancy through school age. My approach is child-first, creating a calm, nurturing environment where children feel safe, respected, and encouraged to learn through play and everyday experiences. I have hands-on infant experience, including feedings, naps, bottle prep, diapering, baby laundry, and supporting developmental milestones. I also have experience with overnight care, travel care, and managing children’s routines. With a professional background in cooking and meal prep, I’m happy to prepare nutritious meals, keep children’s spaces organized, and support your household however I can. I’m a reliable, confident driver looking for a long-term position where I can become a trusted extension of your family and help your children thrive while making your daily life a little easier.

"We were incredibly fortunate to have Ayla care for our children. As a mom of twin one-year-old and a four-year-old finding someone dependable, organized and nurturing is so important. She exceeded every expectation. She was always professional, punctual and an excellent communicator. She listened to our preferences, as parents can consistently follow through, which gave us so much peace of mind. Most importantly, our kids absolutely adored her. They look forward to seeing her every morning. She brought so much energy, fun and excitement to their days while providing structure and care, despite managing three young children, she always made time for one-on-one attention with each child, making them all feel so special and loved. I cannot recommend her highly enough. Any family would be lucky to have her."
