About Alafia
Experience: 7 yrs
I'd describe my personality as compassionate, friendly & welcoming. I like working with kids because it's sowing seeds into all of our futures when we support & uplift children in our communities. I started working with kids in 2015 as part of my high school's Early Childhood Education program. In my spare time, I like to write, walk my dog, & read books. One thing you should know about me is I truly believe all children deserve top tier care regardless of their circumstances in life. My last position as a Nanny was caring for a set of twins from infancy up until they were ready for 4k. My skills include educational support & enrichment, potty training, & baby ASL amongst others!
Most recent review
Our family loves Alafia, and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a nanny/child care provider. We first met Alafia when she was one of the teacher's in our older child's preschool classroom. He instantly felt a connection with Alafia and was always excited to see her. Even when he was still feeling shy at school with other teachers, Alafia was always the one he would open up to, and she always had his special stuffie ready to give him hugs if he was feeling sad. Then we lucked out again when our younger kid moved up classrooms and got to be with Alafia, too! After Alafia left that position, we have remained in touch and she has babysat for our kids several times. She is one of the most thoughtful and engaged teachers/providers I have known, and my kids always love spending time with her. She not only has the professional background and training from early childhood education, but also has a calming, loving presence, connects with kids easily-and brings cool art supplies!
