I like working with kids because it doesn't feel like work! I usually have fun with them and I can't think of a healthier work dynamic than that. I'm looking for a job that is flexible and patient. I'm still taking college courses, so I can't work full time but I would love to work over breaks. I started working with kids when I was 15. I would babysit for family, my baby cousins and nephews, and I absolutely loved it! Then I worked in a church nursery watching kids while their parents were in the service. Now I am a sophomore in college majoring in Elementary Education, so I intern at a local Elementary School throughout the school year. One thing you should know about me is I am looking to make a little extra cash where I can, but my prices are definitely flexible! My skills include planning and instruction if you want an educational experience for your kids and I'm also CPR certified and trained in how to handle choking situations.

Alayna did great with our son! It was a last minute ask but she was super flexible with our times and being able to help us out. She did tummy time, bath time and gave our boy lots of cuddles while we were out 🥰
