About Alissa
Experience: 10 yrs
Hi! My name is Alissa, and I have years of experience caring for children of all ages-from newborns just a week old to teenagers. I've provided traditional babysitting services, cared regularly for my three young nieces (including school drop-offs, pool days, and soccer practices), and worked as a camp counselor responsible for up to 11 kids at a time. I'm confident handling a wide range of needs and personalities, and I always aim to create a safe, fun, and engaging environment. Whether it's planning activities or resolving sibling squabbles, I'm dependable, calm under pressure, and happy to follow any instructions or household routines. I also have reliable transportation and feel very comfortable driving kids to and from wherever they need to be. I also offer pet care! I have two playful kittens of my own and lots of experience walking and caring for dogs of all sizes, including large breeds. I'd love the opportunity to support your family and help things run smoothly at home!
Most recent review
Alissa has helped to care for my children off and on for years, starting as newborns. The oldest is now 8 years old. The kids absolutely love having her around. She is a lot of fun and is extremely caring. Kids can sense these things! She is also able to hold boundaries and handle discipline when and if needed. There aren’t many people I’d trust to take care of my most precious beings (my kids!), but I do trust Alissa, and you should too!
