Hello! My name is Alexis and I am a senior in college studying speech pathology and child development. I have been watching kids on my own since I was 12 years old. Prior to that, I helped my mom in her home daycare and when she taught at a private preschool. I have worked in a daycare, a nursery, as a nanny, a tutor, and a therapy assistant. I am certified in CPR and First Aid, and I have taken CPS Pride classes to become a certified respite caretaker (for foster kids). I've worked with special/medical needs children and I have been a home caretaker for a home health care service. I absolutely love kids and working with them. I can't imagine any job I'd rather have. If you have any questions or would like to contact me directly, feel free to ask for my email or cell number. References available upon request.
