Hello, my name is Allyson! Caring for children has been one of the greatest joys in my life. I've been babysitting and nannying since I was 12 years old and have had the privilege of caring for dozens of families with children ranging from just 2 weeks old through 12 years old. I recently accepted a Lead Teacher role in an infant classroom at a daycare in Chesterfield. I just moved to the area from Wisconsin with my partner after earning my M.A. in Public Service from Marquette University.While I enjoy working with children of all ages, I have a special passion for caring for infants. Building trusting relationships with families is incredibly important to me, and several parents have shared that I was the first person outside of their family they felt comfortable leaving their baby with. I consider that trust an incredible honor and strive to provide every child with patient, attentive, and loving care.My graduate fellowship at a child welfare agency deepened my holistic approach to caregiving. There, I received training in trauma-informed care and Trust-Based Relational Intervention, strengthening my understanding of child development, emotional regulation, and the importance of secure, responsive relationships. I am also currently earning a Trauma-Informed Care Certification through Michigan State University to continue expanding my knowledge and provide the best care possible for every child I work with.One of my long-term dreams is to open a daycare centered on social-emotional learning, nervous system regulation, and helping children build confidence through safe, nurturing relationships. Whether we're reading books, exploring outside, creating art, or working through big emotions together, I strive to create an environment where children feel safe, respected, and encouraged to learn. I'm also happy to assist with meal preparation, light housekeeping, homework/educational activities, and pet care so I can be a dependable, supportive presence for your entire family. I would love the opportunity to get to know your family and provide nurturing care to your littles!

Through these experiences, I have received training in culturally responsive and trauma-informed care, and I have learned how to support children with diverse backgrounds, needs, and experiences in a compassionate and patient way.My academic background in psychology has also strengthened my understanding of child and adolescent development, emotional regulation, and the importance of stable, supportive relationships in early life. I genuinely love working with kids and find it incredibly rewarding to help them feel safe, confident, and cared for.I would describe myself as warm, responsible, attentive, and dependable. I also bring a strong sense of initiative and adaptability, and I am always eager to learn and grow in order to better support the families I work with.
