Hi there, my names alexis and Iβm an energetic and creative 20 year old! I started out in cosmetology school, but fell into childcare and love it so much! My favorite age group are toddlers, but I have experience with all ages. Iβm CPR certified, have my own car, and have taken courses in early childhood development. My focus is on giving your child a safe, routine-focused, and creative space to learn and grow into a wonderful person. I love doing seasonal crafts, baking, pretend play, encouraging independent time, and special weekly outings when appropriate. Iβm firm but kind, and will work with you on any challenges your child may come to. In my personal time I love to cook fancy dishes, play games, and play at the beach with my friends. I love to sing and travel! I look forward to meeting you.

Hi, Iβm Laura! I recently moved to Eugene from Dallas and have been caring for children since high school. Over the past year, Iβve gotten back into childcare through friends, neighbors, and families in my community. Iβve cared for children ages 6 months to 12 years, including twins and siblings, and Iβm comfortable with meals, diapers, baths, bedtime, homework, and keeping kids entertained. I genuinely enjoy being around children and love being a resource as they learn, explore, and satisfy their curiosity. Iβm patient, nurturing, playful, responsible, and creative. I love crafts, reading, board games, outdoor activities, and baking. Iβm also an animal lover with a 3-year-old Labrador, Junior, and experience caring for dogs and cats for friends, family, and neighbors. Iβm comfortable including pet care as part of my time with a family. My goal is for both kids and pets to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for like theyβre my own.

My name is Brooke, and I am a current RU undergrad nursing student and I am looking for another family to provide care for. A little bit about me: I have 4 years of background in healthcare working at RMH as a tech in the ED (secondary PEDS ED) and at LGMC as a tech in the float pool, as well as dialysis. I am BLS & CPI certified. I also have 12 years of babysitting experience and have cared for children aged 3m-12yr. Caring for children & supporting their families is my passion, I hope to go into PEDS, NICU or L&D nursing once I finish school. I tend to have an educational approach when caring for them to help them reach developmental milestones.
