A little bit about me

Hi! I’m Alexa, a dedicated and compassionate childcare professional with over 10 years of experience supporting children and families. My journey has taken me through multiple roles—nanny, behavioral therapist, and now, a first-time mom—which have all deepened my understanding of child development and care.

As a nanny, I’ve had the privilege of working with children of all ages, providing not only day-to-day care but also helping them meet developmental milestones in a nurturing and structured environment. My background in behavioral therapy has equipped me with tools to support children with diverse needs, including those with autism, ADHD, and sensory processing differences. I believe in creating calm, responsive environments where kids feel safe, heard, and empowered to grow.

Becoming a mother myself has brought a whole new perspective to my work—blending professional expertise with the deep empathy and adaptability that comes from parenting firsthand.

The most important part about being a nanny...

A nanny needs to love children and be knowledgeable about child development. They are taking the place of parents while caring for those children. So, they must provide a safe environment that provides for the growth needs (physical, cognitive, and emotional) of their charges. Being a nanny can be an extremely rewarding experience for everyone involved.

My experience with special needs children...

Autism, ADD/ADHD.

The most important part about being a nanny...

All of them! Kids are all so different and you never know what to expect, no day is ever the same!
