I've been working with children for the last fifteen years! I started at Kumon Math and Reading before becoming a nanny for two families in Minnesota. I graduated from Northwestern in 2020 with degrees in Theatre, Marketing, and Film. Upon moving to LA, I became a full time nanny responsible for Zoom preschool and kindergarten. Although I've transitioned into working marketing back in the Twin Cities, I still love helping out as a date night sitter or part-time nanny.

“She's great! From the moment she walked in she got down to our toddlers level and started playing with her. She's super attentive and amazing at communication. We'd definitely recommend her as we plan to bring her back for our next date night! :)”

Hi! My name is Alexandra and I am a caring and compassionate caregiver who truly finds joy in helping others. I always prioritize the needs and comfort of those around me, whether it’s children, adults, or animals. I have a strong sense of empathy that allows me to connect deeply and understand what others need, often before they even say it. I’m especially great with kids — patient, playful, and understanding — and I take pride in creating a safe, nurturing environment where everyone feels valued and supported. Helping others in any way I can isn’t just what I do, it’s who I am.

Experienced, Caring Babysitter with a Lifelong Love for Kids and Pets Hi there! My name is [Your Name], and I’ve been caring for kids since I was 11 years old—starting out as a neighborhood babysitter for families with little ones ranging from 6 months to 5 years old. I’ve looked after up to 3 children at a time and continued babysitting consistently through high school, always enjoying the energy, imagination, and honesty kids bring to life. After high school, I spent my summers as an overnight summer camp counselor—building on my skills in responsibility, safety, and creating fun, memorable experiences for children. During college, I continued to babysit on and off, maintaining that special connection to helping families and engaging with kids of all ages. I also absolutely love animals! I grew up with large-breed dogs like Labs and Golden Retrievers and now have a few four-legged (and scaly!) family members of my own. My first pet as an adult was a bearded dragon named Harold—he’s 14 now and still going strong! I’ve also had two amazing dogs: Gus, a French Bulldog who was perfect in every mischievous way, and Finley, a fun-loving Boxer who’s a proud toy destroyer, a dog’s dog, and a world-class snuggler. Whether you need a reliable sitter for your kids, someone who’s great with pets, or both—I’m here to help with warmth, patience, and a great sense of humor. I’d love to learn more about your family and how I can support you!

As a caregiver, my passion lies in nurturing the growth and development of young minds. With nine years of experience in child care, I am committed to providing a safe, nurturing, and stimulating environment where children can thrive. I am a patient and calm individual with a creative and imaginative approach to learning. My friendly and approachable nature allows me to build strong relationships with children and their families. When it comes to communicating with parents, I follow their preferred method to ensure open and effective communication about their child’s day and any issues that may arise. I am also very comfortable enforcing household rules to provide a structured and consistent environment for children. My educational background includes coursework in early childhood development, which enhances my ability to provide age appropriate activities and experiences for children. I am comfortable caring for children of various age groups from infants to preschoolers. I am a mother of 4 children.

“Truly reliable and very communicative! She helped us out so much. We really appreciated having someone so dependable and caring. Would definitely book again!⭐️”
