A little bit about me

I’m Lexi Lombas, a registered nurse with eight years of experience caring for people of all ages, including children. My background in healthcare has taught me patience, responsibility, and strong communication skills—qualities that translate naturally into childcare. I’ve also worked as a healthcare recruiter and real estate investor, which has strengthened my organization and time-management abilities.

Outside of my professional life, I enjoy spending time outdoors, traveling, and doing creative projects. I’m passionate about helping others and creating a safe, nurturing environment where children can learn and have fun. I value routines, kindness, and open communication with parents to ensure each child’s needs are met.

Overall, I bring a caring, reliable, and attentive approach to every family I work with.
