Nanny in Edmonton, Alberta

I met Alyson through mutual friends 7+ years ago. Since that time we have become very good friends and, although she would probably consider me a mentor, I have also greatly benefited from our relationship. Alyson is a hard worker who sets goals (personal, career, educational, etc) and will pursue them until results are achieved. I had the privilege of supporting Alyson a few years ago as she worked towards achieving her life-time goal of traveling to Africa to work as a volunteer with the not-for-profit organization Habitat for Humanity. This was no small feat and required a lot of preparation including significant fund-raising, personal commitment and sacrifice. Alyson has also shown strong work ethic, dependability and perseverance during the many years she worked as a carpenter and in camps in Alberta. As these are predominantly male-dominated trades, they came with their own unique set of challenges which Alyson was able to capably handle because of her strong inter-personal and problem-solving skills. Alyson has also been a role model and mentor for others. I have always known Alyson to be very honest and self-aware with a keen desire to improve the world-her own and the larger one. I would not hesitate in recommending Alyson for a position with Canadian Nanny.
