Hi! I'm Alex , a Chicago based caregiver with a background in teaching and behavioral support. For the past 3 years, I've worked as a kindergarten teacher at a therapeutic day school. Before that, I was a full-time nanny for an infant, an ABA therapist for 2 years, and provided after-school care for elementary aged kids. I'm CPR certified, RBT certified, CPI certified, and a mandated reporter, and I have experience with children from 1 month through 14 years old. I'm calm, structured, and playful, and I'm very comfortable supporting kids with different needs and routines. I'm currently looking for a new role and would love to connect with a family who values reliable, thoughtful care!
