A little bit about me

I started babysitting when I was 10 and started nanny when I was 14. I have around 16 years of experience working with children and have worked in serveral schools, as well as nanny for several families. I love being out doors, doing art, cooking and baking, and having fun! I love working with children and believe it is my calling. I also have a year old daughter who loves people and would be coming with me to work. She is easy going and love animals also!

"Lexi worked for us for almost a year to watch our 1.5/2 year old. During this time she was a live in nanny and worked for us full time. I would highly recommend Lexi to watch your children. It’s hard to find good, reliable child care and Lexi is a gem! She was always reliable and showed up on time. Lexi is very flexible and listened to input on what we needed for our son. She spent her time playing with him and teaching him, not on her phone. Lexi taught him both life skills and manners such as how to eat at a restaurant or pick up after himself. She also read to him and taught him pre-k skills such as colors. Lexi is great with kids and you can tell she loves them and is attentive to them; she’s also firm if needed. She would take him out to the park or playdates and I always felt safe with her driving him. Plus, she always let me know where they were going to be and kept me updated. My son was always so excited to see her. He even now asks about her and we still keep in touch."

The most important part about being a nanny...

My experience with special needs children...

During high school, i did theater camp every Christmas with the special needs classes. We taught them about acting, signing, making props, and being on stage while building relationships with them.

The most important part about being a nanny...

It's hard to pick just one, but it would have to be when a little boy I nannied came home from the hospital with his baby sister. She was crying and he goes over to her and says "don't worry, Von-Von, Yaya (that was his nickname for me) will make everything better, just like mommy." It was so sweet, his mom and I both had tears in our eyes. She said she knew she picked the right nanny for her children.
