About Alexandria

Experience: 5 yrs

In working at a summer camp not only do I come with craft ideas, but I also have a musical, athletic, and a highly achieving academic background. At around age 8, I helped my mom with daycare and saved a child from drowning. At 14, I was taking care of my newborn nephew who is a fun-loving, daredevil of a 7-year-old today! At 19, I then was commuting from college to help my sister take care of my newborn niece who is now almost 4! Meanwhile, I work most summers at a summer camp where I am a counselor and I have a leadership position of Health Coordinator (camp nurse). I have taken care of over 150 children a week dealing with any medical emergency, medications, and more. Working with and caring for children has been some of the most rewarding moments of my life. I am currently a 22-year-old, 3rd semester nursing student at the University of Iowa with the intention of applying to the DNP program for family practice post graduation!

Ally is an amazing person and my son loves her so much he offered to have her live with us :-). She is kind, patient, and punctual. She is an active babysitter and keeps him busy playing games outdoors.
