Hello, my name is Alexandra! I am 27 and a SAHM of one! I have been watching children on and off for the past 14-15 years ranging in ages Newborn-18. My primary responsibilities included giving baths, preparing meals/snacks, providing transportation to activities, assisting with homework, putting the children down for naps/bedtime, assisting parents in teaching responsibility and helping to establish learning routines as well as household chores, and engaging in activities both inside and outside. I am a very outgoing person and love to stay active! A few things I enjoy doing are reading, painting, watching movies, taking walks, swimming, playing video games, and spending time with friends and family! I have two beautiful dogs who love to be outside! My daughter is the reason I want to help other families! Please know she may have to be with me some days. I have always found childcare very rewarding. Please don't hesitate to message me with any other questions!

Alex has been wonderful over the years with babysitting and caring for our daughter since she was a baby. Our daughter is now 8 years old and we still have her take care of her when we are back in town. Alex is extremely attentive, caring, and reliable person that we can always count on. She takes care of the kids as if they are her own with such love and attention. She knows how to address any issues that may come up as kids will be kids. I recommend Alex with no hesitation at all in caring for anyone's child.
