My name is Xenia. I believe in catering to a child's emotional and intellectual needs. I believe in explaining the reason for things versus telling a child "No". Instead, I will tell a child, "That's not something we put in our mouth because it's not food. We only put food and medicine in our mouth." In that way, the child is able to make the connection in its brain in a healthy and productive manner instead of bringing fear and rejection to the child. I love cats and dogs. I am open to babysit children, your fur babies, and perform light domestic work.

“Kay is amazing with our 9 month old boy and 4 year old girl. She is knowledgeable about everything baby related including baby led weaning, sleep training and developmental milestones. We trust her wholeheartedly with our kids. She is always on the floor with our baby helping him with his development, reading him books, singing to him, etc. She is always on the go, walking him to the park and proactively organizing play dates with other babies his age. She is very respectful of our home, keeping play and kitchen areas tidy. We highly recommend Kay and think any family would be lucky to have her care for their kids.”

“Ebony is absolutely wonderful! She is everything you could hope for in a nanny and more. She is caring, dependable, always punctual, incredibly flexible, and brings such wonderful energy and enthusiasm to everything she does. She is fantastic with my six-year-old daughter, helping her with homework, keeping her engaged, and always finding ways to make their time together fun and productive. Ebony has become a true partner in helping me care for my daughter, and I appreciate her more than I can say. As a parent, there is nothing more important than knowing your child is safe, happy, and in good hands, and I have complete peace of mind whenever my daughter is with Ebony. She is truly the best, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. I call her Ebony Poppins - that's how great she is! I am always happy to provide a personal reference!”
