Hello! I'm 36, a flight attendant, and just recently moved here from California. I spent the past 4 years living in LA and worked as a nanny there, and before that I was living in Spain working as an English teacher and nanny. I have been nannying/babysitting since I was 12. I have a lot of experience with children from infants to teens, and I am CPR and First Aid certified, and I’ve worked with children with all abilities. I'm really friendly, interactive and I love kids. I prefer engaging with the children as opposed to letting them sit and watch movies or play video games. I'm responsible, reliable and organized.
“Thanks Bethany. The kids had a great time and it was a pleasure to have you. It was a tremendous help and easy to communicate. Thanks again ”
Hi! My name is Alejandra, I’m 22 years old and I have about 5 years of experience caring for children. Taking care of kids has always been part of my life. I grew up helping with my younger brother (who is now 10) and my younger cousins, which helped me develop patience, responsibility, and a natural connection with children. I’m a very creative person and I love keeping kids engaged with fun activities like arts and crafts, creative play, and small projects. I also enjoy photography and anything related to creativity. I’m currently studying Computer Art at Hudson County Community College and I have a certificate in Graphic Design, so I love bringing creativity and imagination into the time I spend with kids. My first language is Spanish, and I also speak English well. I’m caring, responsible, and attentive, and I always try to create a safe, positive, and fun environment where children feel comfortable and supported. I truly love working with kids and being someone families can trust. I would be happy to help support your family and take great care of your little ones. I’m also very comfortable with pets, so having animals in the home is absolutely no problem for me
“Alejandra was reliable, friendly, and did a great job jumping right in to put our two boys to bed and complete kid-related tasks after bedtime. ”

"We were incredibly grateful that Maya was able to help us out with a last-minute childcare emergency. She matched our 9-year-old's energy with arts & crafts, some quiet reading, and a walk around the neighborhood. We'd have Maya back in a heartbeat!"
