Hi, I'm Lauren, a proud Longhorn studying at Thomas University in Thomasville, GA. If you're seeking a reliable babysitter or nanny near campus, I'm your guy! Reach out to me soon, and we can set up a meeting.

My name is Alexis J, most people call me Lexie. I have been working with children for about six years now. I've always loved children. I have worked at a total of two daycares for a minimum of four years. I enjoyed caring for infants and toddlers. As a daycare teacher, I would provide a space where children are able to explore and express themselves. For example, I would create name papers for them to paint or color on to exercise their fine motor skills. Not only fine motor skills, but I would also utilize gross motor skills, such as cutting and pasting phonics with picture photos out of magazines to assist with letter practice and rhyming words or pictures. Additionally, I have experience arranging and leading activities that are developmentally suitable and engaging for children. As far as assisting with academic needs, I have also learned to utilize my experiences in dealing with behavior issues. You will experience children who are more challenging than others, and that's because children have a variety of feelings they're unable to express through words. I have experience with children with consistent meltdowns, and during those times. You have to allow them a moment to be angry and to express that anger. Once the child has calmed down and they are in a calm state to communicate the way they are feeling, make sure to take the time and listen to them before you respond. As a caregiver and previous teacher, this technique has always worked for me. Children have always been my profession. I have always had a passion for working with children, and I believe that their childhood is the most crucial part of their lives.
