Naples Mother's Helpers

Hello! My name is Alisha and I am a college graduate working full-time as an elementary school teacher in Naples! I have several years of relative childcare experience in personal and professional environments. Due to the nature of my career, I am very qualified to work with kids and have all necessary safety certifications!

2008 to 2010 Took care of a set of 4-year-old twins. Helped dress, feed and get them off to school every morning. 2011 to 2013 Nanny and housekeeper for 6 children and a 3000 sq ft home. Dropped off and picked up kids daily, prepared snacks and meals, helped with homework, playtime with kids, ran errands as well as laundry and house cleaning. Did whatever was needed to help the family. 2013 to 2015 Housekeeper and babysitter. Took care of a 7000 sq ft home and watched a 4 and 6-year-old occasionally. 2015 to 2020 Family helper. Helped with two teenagers up until they went to college. Drove them back and forth to school and after school activities. Prepared snacks and cooked meals. Did light housekeeping in a 2000 sq ft home plus laundry. Ran errands for the family and did whatever else was needed.

I graduated from college and I received my Early Childhood Professional Certificate in Preschool Specialization and my Child Development Associate Credential. I absolutely love little kids and they are a huge passion of mine. I also have had several experiences working with kids and have worked summers in the mountains as a camp counselor with 3 to 5-year-olds. I also have done quite a bit of babysitting over the years. I also work a lot childcare through my church where I have worked with the babies all the way up to 3 and 4-year-olds. I am also CPR certified. I have experience caring for multiples such as twins and triplets as well.

I treat the children that I watch as if they were my own. I have experience caring for both babies and young children. I have helped take care my 5-year-old nephew since he was born--changing diapers, feeding him, putting him down for naps and of course playing with him. I babysat for a family friend during the summer of 2016 for a 4-year-old boy and also helped take care of the child when he was a baby. I have worked as a mother's helper/babysitter for a family who had three children ranging in age from 3 to 8. I mostly recently worked as a preschool teacher assistant for two years where I cared for babies through 4-year-old. I am loving, nurturing and fun with kids.

I have been Babysitting/Nannying off and on for 10 years (started as a mothers helper at 11). I've had all sorts of experience in this area, including watching multiple children while parents have been out of town! Additionally, I was given the opportunity to Nanny/Home school a 10-year-old girl during my senior year of high school (I was home schooled as well). Outside of Babysitting, I've have the chance to help with children and/or pre-schools in both Brazil and Papua New Guinea while on missions trips. I am a missionary, therefore, I will only be available through August (potentially September). While I listed myself as Part-Time, I would consider Full-Time. Additionally, I will have access to a car on some days, but can bike (depending on location).
