About Jalayah

Experience: 6 yrs

Hi, I'm Jalayah! With over 6 years of professional childcare experience, I provide more than exceptional care-I offer thoughtful, personalized support that helps busy households run seamlessly. I specialize in creating a calm, polished, and nurturing environment where children feel confident, engaged, and supported in their development. I'm proactive, highly attentive to detail, and comfortable anticipating the needs of both children and parents in fast-paced households. From preparing nutritious meals and managing children's laundry to creating meaningful learning experiences and maintaining well-organized routines, I take pride in providing dependable, elevated support that allows families to focus on what matters most. Families can count on me to bring warmth, discretion, consistency, and professionalism into their home. I'm fully vaccinated, a non-smoker, and committed to providing exceptional care while respecting your family's privacy, preferences, and lifestyle.

Jalayah has been our full-time nanny from June 2024 to now for our now 3 year old daughter. She has been a caring and engaging nanny for our daughter, who often refers to her as her best friend! Beyond the normal nanny duties, including changing, feeding, and play, Jalayah also has always brought her out for fun and educational outings, including the library 2x per week, and occasional trips to the children’s museum, and zoo. We have always been strict about our kid’s routine, and Jalayah has been excellent with regard to keeping the schedule. She has been great to work with and has communicated effectively with our family. I highly recommend her for any family looking for a long term nanny who will be a light in your child’s life and a great help to the whole family. Preschool starts soon, and this is the only reason we're parting with Jalayah - but our daughter is already plotting how she can see Jalayah on weekends. We will miss her!
