About Alexandria
Experience: 1 yr
COVID-19 vaccinated
Hello! My name is Alex and I'm a recent graduate of Vanderbilt University's MFA in creative writing program. I'm a former English college instructor and tutor in all subjects for elementary-aged students. Beyond this, what I loved most was being able to connect with younger children by discussing and prioritizing both their academic and mental health needs. I'm very passionate about promoting creativity among children--whether it's involved crafting engaging lesson plans, taking a trip to an interactive museum, or just by having an arts and crafts session! I also have a 14-year-old sister that I've spent half of my life, (and well, her entire life), caring for. As a former tutor, I also prioritized the wellbeing of my students by discussing anxiety both inside and outside the classroom with breathing exercises and daily check-ins. In my free time, you can find me trying to gather friends in this new city, baking, frequenting community events, or watching movies with my cat.

We hired Alex for care of my daughter while in town. She was communicative and reliable, arriving on time/early each day. She took time to get to know us, and my daughter, and took her on adventures and spent quality time with little one. She wasn’t on her phone or distracted, which I really appreciate in a child care provider. I would recommend her to those looking for a reliable and responsible sitter who is patient and kind with children. Would absolutely hire again.
