Alejandra worked with us for 6 months while our daughter was 6-12 months old, two to three days per week. She is professional, attentive and our daughter would reach for her when she came in the house. Alejandra played and engaged with our daughter the whole time she was here, taking her for walks outside in the stroller and helping her with motor skills. She was never on her phone or disengaged from our daughter or what was going on in our house. She was comfortable around our animals and would let the dogs out when my husband and I were too busy with meetings or other work. We found Alejandra to be completely trustworthy and felt very comfortable leaving our daughter with her and leaving her alone in our house. She was willing to help out with anything we asked while Adair was napping including dishes, laundry and cooking. She is a joy to have around. We ended up needing to find another solution because we were looking for more days a week and greater consistency than Alejandra was able to offer at this time. We will continue to have her care for our daughter when we need additional support on evenings or weekends or school holidays.
Alejandro is amazing and helping us feel very comfortable leaving our children in her care! She is prompt, flexible, knowledgeable, and very caring with our kids! She is a fantastic nanny for both my kids for almost 15 months and 28 months . She is responsible, honest, communicative and on-time. She is also open minded in receiving feedback and guidance on how I would like my baby to be cared for, yet still offering her advice based on her experience when watching the development of my babies . She’s very engaging and brings activities to keep the kids entertained. She’s great about following our schedules and making sure the kids stay on routine. She is now part of our family, and we can’t imagine life without her love & support.

I would not recommend this nanny/babysitter. I had talked to Alejandra on the phone and planned to meet her at a coffee shop. Alejandra did not show up, and when I had called her the phone number had been disconnected. In addition, she would not agree to a background check from sitter city.
