Hi! I’m Alexa, and I have several years of childcare experience with children of different ages. I worked as a full-time babysitter for six months in 2020, and I’ve also worked as a live-in nanny, which gave me hands-on experience with the everyday routines and responsibilities that come with caring for children. In addition, I regularly babysit for family friends on weekends and as needed.As the oldest child and oldest cousin in my family, caring for younger kids has always come very naturally to me. I’m comfortable helping with meals, playtime, bedtime routines, keeping kids entertained and maintaining a safe and organized environment. I’m dependable, patient, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with kids and getting to know their individual personalities.I understand how important it is for parents to feel completely comfortable with the person caring for their children, so I always try to be someone families can trust and rely on. I’d love to connect with a family looking for a responsible, caring, and fun sitter!
