Hello! My name is Alexa, and I am a caring, patient, responsible, and dependable childcare provider who genuinely enjoys working with children. I have experience working at a children's summer daycare, where I was responsible for children between the ages of 4-12, including children with special needs. I also volunteered with children through the Salvation Army. Additionally, I currently care for a 3-month-old baby whom I have been looking after since he was just 2 months old, so I am comfortable with infant care and understanding the needs of younger babies. What I'm looking for in a job is being needed. I know how hard it is to be a parent, while also maintaining one's life. I enjoy being needed and useful. To lend a hand. Most importantly, I understand that every family has different routines, expectations, and parenting preferences. I am always willing to follow. I want parents to feel comfortable, confident, & at ease knowing their children are in caring and responsible hands.
From day one, Alexa stood out for her reliability, warmth, and natural ability to connect with my god son. She consistently arrived on time, prepared with engaging playtime activities that my god son genuinely looked forward to. Whether managing some minor household chores that she willing-full did without being asked or handling bedtime routines, Iker always maintained calm, despite him loving to be carried. One thing that gave me total peace of mind was her knowledge of CPR. She is amazing.
