Hi! I’m an enthusiastic and patient childcare provider with over 10 years of experience. I recently graduated CSU, majoring in Communications with a focus in Non-profit Management. Hoping to make an impact in nutrition and well-being of children through school systems. I am currently enrolled in a holistic nutrition program. In terms of my childcare outlook and practices, I believe it is vital that children are provided with a stimulating, educational, and loving environment to support them in all aspects of growth and development. I recognize the importance of kids being able to express creativity as well as time spent outside. I have experience with children of all ages; newborn, toddlers, to teenagers. I have done overnights, carpools, and have worked with children with special needs. I also enjoy preparing healthy foods/snacks! Also, I can provide great references. I look forward to chatting with you soon!

We found Alex on sitter city in 2014, and have been working with her since. My children were 1 and 3 when we started using her, and as they grow older, she is still a great fit. She can prep dinner, help with homework, master the bed-time routine and more. She's great with pets. She is very responsive and responsible. Our children love her, and she makes the parents happy as well!

Alex has been a wonderful help to our family - and you would be very fortunate if she became a part of yours! We hired Alex as an "invaluable assistant" - more than a "babysitter" and more than a "nanny." Alex integrated into our family without a hitch. She is cheerful, energetic, brilliant and a very effective communicator. Alex's organizational and time management skills enabled her to prioritize and juggle the tasks I provided her with from light housekeeping, laundry, filing and helping my very active twin boys with homework. Although she juggled our family with other important responsibilities (namely school!) in her own life, Alex was always punctual and ready to work with a smile on her face. She was comfortable having multiple kids over at one time for playdates and practiced patience in every situation. Alex was helpful, understanding, communicative and committed during her time with our family! And as a special bonus, our pets - a giant dog and two crazy cats - loved her, too.
