About Alyssa

Hi! My name is Alyssa, I am 23 years old and originally from Franklin, WI. I graduated last year from DePaul University in Chicago with a degree in Psychology concentrating in Human Development, and minors in Early Childhood Education and Music Studies. I am now in graduate school at UWM studying Occupational Therapy and hoping to work in pediatrics. I am flexible and dependable, and I love to help young children learn and grow! I have extensive experience working with children. During high school, I worked at a preschool for two years with children aged 1-5 years. Throughout college, I worked at The Goddard School of Chicago with children aged 6 weeks to 6 years old. I spent a lot of that time working with infants aged 6 weeks to 15 months in particular! I also was an interim assistant in a 9-15 month room, a 15-20 month room, and a 4-year-old room so I have extra experience with these ages. I have also babysat for dozens of families from these schools and can provide references!
