About Alana

Experience: 2 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

I am an experienced childcare provider who has been working with children for over two years. I have a passion for fostering children's growth and development. I am patient, calm, and friendly, and I am comfortable enforcing household rules. I enjoy playing board games and puzzles with children, as well as educational games that promote learning. I am comfortable caring for two children at a time, and I have experience with special needs children. I have also completed coursework in Early Child Development. I communicate with parents about their child's day or any issues that arise through written daily reports, verbal communication at pickup, or by following their preferred communication method. I am confident in my ability to provide a safe and nurturing environment for your child. I am willing to help with cooking, meal preparation, and light housekeeping. I have a car and am comfortable with pets. I am fully certified in CPR and First Aid.
