Babysitter, Nanny, And Tutor

See profile
Hello! My name is Allison and I am excited to be your babysitter, nanny, and/or tutor. I graduated from Elon University in 2019 with a BA in Human Services & International Studies with a minor in Spanish. I spent this past academic year working as an English Language Assistant at an elementary school in Madrid, Spain. I have...
Growing up I've always been fond of caring for others and teaching new things. During my high school years I took up child development because I wanted a career in the education system as an elementary teacher. I've volunteered at Marklund Children's home for kids with special needs and enjoyed every minute with them.
