Hi, I’m Alyssa and I teach 7th grade language arts. I was born and raised in Mystic, CT and have been babysitting since I was 14. I typically watch 2-3 kids at a time, but have watched up to 7 at once. I have experience with infants all the way up to pre-teens. My interests outside of teaching include hiking, running, reading, writing, playing the guitar and the ukulele, as well as hanging out on the beach or anywhere near the water. Past employers would describe me as responsible, respectful, welcoming, honest, and kind. I thoroughly enjoy working with kids and appreciate their sense of humor. Don’t hesitate to reach out and I will get back to you as soon as possible! During the school year, I’m mostly only available for weekends.
