A little bit about me
Hi families! My name is Alejandra, I’m 26 and originally from Colombia. I have 6 years of experience working with children, starting in my adolescence and later in a company supporting wellness and development programs for employees’ children. I’ve worked with newborns to 6 years old, helping with language development, potty training, sleep routines, and structured schedules. I am patient, nurturing, responsible, and deeply committed to creating a safe and loving environment where children feel secure and happy. I am CPR and First Aid certified, have a driver’s license, and strong references available. I am looking for a respectful family where we can build trust through open communication and teamwork while supporting the children’s growth and well-being.

A little bit about me
I have professional experience working with children from infants to teens. Infancy and toddler years are my primary focus, but I am happy to continue working beyond that stage to stay with a growing child or a growing family!
Recently I have been working short-term nanny positions, and am looking for another family to work with starting in September 2025.
One "version" of me is a fox character, consorting with corvids and faeries! For several years, I attended events in-costume as the caregiver for a fellow performer's child, so that baby and parent could travel together while baby had dedicated attention and care.
I am looking for a long-term position near DC, or am open to traveling outside of the area for a short-term position.

Recent reference
"Sam filled in for us for a month while we were temporarily between caregivers, and did an amazing job caring for both babies in our nanny share (13 weeks and 19 weeks at the start of the share). They were warm, friendly, and extremely caring with our baby. They also took directions really well-- both babies have torticollis, and our son needs to be encouraged to look to the right as much as possible. Sam did tummy time, stretches, and did their best to make sure everyone's PT needs were met. I had just started going back to work after my maternity leave ended, and I appreciated how communicative Sam was about how my baby was doing every day."

A little bit about me
I am a family oriented teacher who relocated to Washington D.C. As the last daughter of a large family from Hawaii, I've always had the responsibility to look after my younger cousins, nieces and nephews. This was the beginning of my love for education and childcare. I have over five years of teaching experience and I truly love making education as fun and engaging as possible. Some of my hobbies are hiking, crafts, line dancing and reading. I have an open schedule and am open to additional responsibilities including light housework, meal prep or other household assistance.

A little bit about me
I love taking care of babies and children. I have experience caring for a baby, a toddler and 2 children at the same time (they were siblings). I looked after them last year (2022) when I was in England, I was with them for about 6 months, I also have experience looking after them when they use to be sick. I used to wake them up in the morning, prepare them breakfast, dress them, take them to school, pick them up from school, I also used to give them lunch and I used to bathe them, I used to read to them at night, and put them to sleep. i studied cuisine in my country, so I know how to cook and do meal preps, I also took care of a toddler and a kid, when I came back to my country, for about 4 months before coming to the USA, I pride myself on tailoring my care to the unique needs of each child, recognizing that every individual is a special and distinct little person, so I can help with everything you need. Im a christian so the values and principles are my foundation.
