Hi! My name is Ashley, I’m 20 years old, and I’m a responsible, caring, and dependable person who loves working with children. I speak both English and Spanish, and I have my own reliable car, so transportation is not an issue. I’m currently in college studying nursing because I hope to use my career to help children, including children with autism and other special needs. I’m also a big sister to my autistic little brother, which has given me valuable experience being patient, understanding, attentive, and supportive of children with different needs. I understand how important it is for parents to feel comfortable and confident in the person caring for their children. I’m happy to help with playtime, age-appropriate activities, meals, homework, routines, and light cleanup related to the children. My goal is always to make sure your little ones feel safe, comfortable, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I’d love the opportunity to get to know your family and provide reliable, trustworthy care!

I am a dependable, nurturing, and highly organized professional nanny and family assistant with several years of experience caring for children from infancy through school age. I have worked with families in both short-term and long-term positions, providing attentive childcare while helping busy households stay organized and running smoothly.My childcare experience includes creating safe and structured environments, maintaining daily routines, preparing meals, assisting with hygiene, planning age-appropriate activities, and handling school drop-offs, pick-ups, appointments, and extracurricular activities. I am a confident driver and comfortable managing busy schedules while remaining flexible when a family’s needs change.In addition to childcare, I have extensive experience providing household support, including children’s laundry, tidying and organizing, grocery shopping and pickup, errands, meal preparation, maintaining children’s and common areas, package and mail collection, and helping parents stay ahead of day-to-day responsibilities. I naturally notice what needs to be done and enjoy being someone a family can rely on.My background as a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) has also strengthened my ability to work patiently and effectively with children with different personalities, developmental needs, and communication styles. Through my RBT experience, I supported children with communication, social, academic, behavioral, and daily-living goals while working closely with families to provide consistent and individualized support.I would describe myself as patient, trustworthy, proactive, adaptable, and genuinely caring. I believe in being warm and approachable while also providing children with appropriate structure, consistency, and boundaries. My goal is to become a trusted extension of the family—not only someone who provides excellent childcare, but someone who makes everyday life easier, more organized, and less stressful for the entire househo
