I'm a 36 year old former nanny (15 years, 5+ children, newborns to teenagers, travel & overnights) and native Alexandrian that moved back to the area after 7 years on the West Coast to revel in Aunt life. Currently taking a break from my career in the business world, I spend Mon-Fri with my nieces (referred to as Aunt B Academy by all the littles in my life!). I do preschool carpool daily so I am primarily available to help you out in the afternoon/evening or on weekends. Open to the possibility of drop off care at my home on weekdays. I'm a fun loving, joyful, outgoing, shameless cat lady! I enjoy practicing yoga, cooking, dancing/hula hooping, listening to music and spending time outside. I adore children and can't think of a better way to subsidize my frivolous expenses than hanging with your kiddos. My rate is $25/hour for 1 Read more or 2 kids (any age). $5/hour for each additional kid. Happy to provide references on request.

Becky was great! She handled our two year old girl from the tears of our goodbyes and entertained her for the evening, all while taking care of our three month old daughter. We came home to a quiet house, with both children asleep. We will definitely use her again.
