Hello, I'm Alyssa! I'm a 25 year old mother to a (soon to be) 3 year old little boy named Jasper. My family and I recently moved here to West Virginia from Washington State after my husband's time with the Army was over. I am the oldest child of 11 ( Yep, ELEVEN! ) and grew up raising all of them- Usually 4-8 at a time, with ages ranging from months old to 16 or 17 years old. I also spent some times as a recreational gymnastics coach and have always been the designated childcare friend, so I've had my fair share of experiences and would be happy to give you my very long list of references. I have a sea of patience, love for adventure, and have always enjoyed coming up with fun trips, games, or activities to keep kids happy, entertained, or interested in education! I'm looking for Read more a position with a family that allows me to have my son around each day. My future income is just going to health insurance to keep our family financially afloat and it's hard to find safe and affordable person/environment of care these days, so my son and I are a package deal. Think of it as a playdate childcare all in one! Anything he needs is of course taken care of by me, he's just there to make friends! I understand it's unconventional, but I promise you, you'll love him too. All details such as hours, location, and extended services (Light cleaning, Tutoring, Organization, Cooking, Errand Running, etc.) can be worked out based on needs of the family. If you have any concerns, questions, or want to schedule an interview with us, please let me know!
