Meet Alexia

  • Comfortable with pets
  • Has a car

Hi, My name is Alexia Hirsch, I am 23 years old. I grew up as the oldest of four children, who are 5 and 8 years younger than me. I am currently taking online classes pursuing a degree in early childhood education. I have babysat for the same family for the past 6 years. They had four boys ranging from 10 years old to 2 years old. I worked for them in the afternoons after school. We would start the afternoon completing homework and having an afternoon snack. If I was not driving the older two from different activities, we would be playing outside. I still babysit for them occasionally for date nights but the mother decided to leave her job and stay home to be with her boys. As well as babysitting for them during the summers I was a swim instructor for children ranging from 3 to 12 Read more years old. I am very comfortable caring for children of all ages, as well as multiplies, also I am comfortable with animals. I grew up with dogs, cats, rabbits, and fish. I have a reliable SUV and am willing to drive carpools and to activities.
