My name is Alyssa but everyone calls me Lyssa. I’m the oldest of 6. I have 3 sisters and 2 brothers. That’s actually how I got into babysitting then from there it went to other family members and children of friends. I’ve always loved kids and I’m a big kid at heart myself. Usually right before school starts back I take all the kids in the family on a mini field trip whether it’s to the movie theater or to an arcade. In school I took child development courses. So I have certificates for SIDS and Shaken baby. I am also familiar with children with allergies and with autism.

Hi! I am originally from Chicago but moved to Nashville in 2019. I have worked with and been around children all my life. I love teaching them, as well as doing fun activities with them. I have babysat and been a mother's helper since I was 11 years-old and would consider myself an excellent role model to children. I have worked for many different families over the year, and especially love to find a regular family that needs date night sitters that I can can continue to babysit for. I was a full-time nanny all 4 years of college for a family with 5 kids, all under the age of 5 years old including a set of twins. I then was also a nanny the first couple years I lived in Nashville for 2 little boys, one being completely immune compromised and on a feeding tube. I have felt with every challenge of babysitting and am comfortable with all age groups. I have lived in Nashville for 5 years now and am very familiar with almost all areas of Nashville and kid friendly activities in Nashville as well. I have many amazing references from my families I am currently or have babysat for and would be glad to pass the information along. My schedule is pretty flexible and I have pretty open availability with a bit of notice. Would love to chat more and hopefully be your families new go to babysitter :)
