Hi! My name is Alyssa! I am a recent graduate from University of Colorado Boulder with a BA Psychology! I am a very sociable person and I love spending time with kids of all ages. I have a very open evening schedule and I have a car of my own, I am First Aid certified, and CPR certified!

I am a compassionate hardworking child caregiver with 13-years of experience. I love children and have found childcare to be an incredibly rewarding and fun experience. I have been an elementary educator for 5 years for Denver Public Schools. Before getting my masters in curriculum and instruction I was the Director of Programs at a nonprofit youth center and daycare located in the Sun Valley neighborhood in Denver. Through this position, I have gained extensive knowledge about child psychology. I planned and facilitated daily field trips, led educational and creative activities, organized recreation and mindfulness exercises, and more. During college, I cared for twin three-year-olds and a nine-year-old girl for 3 years. With spending about 10 hours a day with these children I prepared healthy meals, did housework, helped with homework, took the children to activities, changed diapers, gave baths, designed developmentally stimulating activities for the children, and engaged in lots of play. While working for this family I learned how to be an extension of the parents by maintaining strong lines of communication with them. I have cared for a number of families over the years and have experience with multiples, newborns, toddlers, grade school-aged kids, and teenagers. I am energetic, dependable, creative, and patient. I am committed to providing your family the best care. Additionally, I have worked as a swim instructor teaching children of all ages how to swim. I would be happy to work on swimming with your children if desired. Through my vast experience, developmental psychology classes in college, and my extensive research in childcare I have developed a deep understanding of children of all ages. I am Lifeguard, First Aid and CPR certified for Adult and Pediatrics by the American Red Cross and American Heart Association. I also have a variety of other certifications that were required to work in a childcare center such as playground safety, medication administration, standard precautions, FEMA, etc. I would love the opportunity to meet you and your children and hopefully make a lasting connection

I have been a mother of two children and raised them to be solid citizens of this country and established a work ethic that I deemed important in the development of other family’s children. I have love and compassion for these children which my references will fully vouch for. It is my desire to teach, coach, and train them, giving my heart and soul to further expand these children’s hopes and dreams! I realize my responsibility to be more than just a “sitter” because I am an extension of the family and thus, take great care in their nurturing and education.

***Fully Vaccinated*** Hi there! I moved to Denver, CO from Portland, OR in July 2020. I graduated with a Psychology degree in summer of 2019 and formerly employed as a Mental Health Counselor at an at-risk youth residential center. I have a dog of my own named Malo, who is my best friend. During my spare time, I do yoga, see live music, go on hikes, and play with my dog. I am an aunt of three amazing nephews and two beautiful nieces. Back home, I lived with my sister and her husband and took care of their two girls ( at the time were 9 months old and 2 and a half years old) Monday - Friday and some weekend nights. I have experience babysitting kids from the age of 7-16, along with kids on the Spectrum and administering oral medication. I am QMAP'd and have my CPR certification. I love kids and if they like sports, nature or just playing outdoors, that's a plus because I love the outdoors! I am experienced in changing diapers -- yes, even blow outs, preparing meals for the day and/or school, driving little ones to school/park/errands, changing clothes, reminding to clean up after themselves, potty training, limiting screen time and mentally and physically exercising during play time! With that being said, I will take care of your kids the same way I take care of myself -- with love and patience. For the last three years, I was a Mental Health Counselor as listed above for at-risk youth; I have a passion to work with kids! I am seeking occasional babysitting gigs when parents needs a break or want a lovely date night. Currently, I am getting my masters in clinical psychology and decided to take a break from the mental health field to focus on school; therefore, my schedule is pretty much completely open! However, I do prefer to babysit during the day to nights, even late nights! Hope to hear from you :)

My experience includes taking care of infants, toddlers, twins, older children, and children with special needs.

I have experience from having my own boys as well - one with special needs. I have watched kids full time and just a few days a week. I like getting to know each child's personality to know the best way to care for them as well as incorporating the parent's infant schedules/guidelines. I enjoy taking kids on adventures/keeping them active as well as helping with homework. I am open to helping out around the house. Thank you for your consideration.
