Hi, I'm Alex! I am a college student transferring closer to home, and I'm looking for more kiddos to love on! I am compassionate, understanding, and I love to watch your babies navigate life. A few more things about me: I have a cat called Lyla, I've always got my nose in a book, I am fluent in ASL, I LOVE coffee, music, and anything creative! I believe that while adults have things to teach littles, we also can learn so much through their creative and loving spirits! I enjoy teaching moments such as allowing littles to help prepare their meals (within reason of course!) and HAVING FUN! Fashion shows, going to the park, artwork for mom and dad, and playing with cars are some of my favorite activities! I have no kids of my own, but I am the oldest of my siblings. This is where I first got Read more my fair share of babysitting! As I got older, families within my church asked me to babysit for them and it has become something I genuinely LOVE! I have experience with children of all ages, although I have more experience caring for infants and toddlers. I have no problem helping with housework or schoolwork. Communication is HIGHLY important to me, especially with my busy schedule. I know that you also keep busy, so I am sure communication will be appreciated on both sides! I am a planner, if you need me I'll be there! However, if it is a last-minute need I will not always be able to help. Thank you for taking your time to read my bio, it is important to me that you feel I will be a great match for your family's needs! Have a blessed day :)
