Find experienced babysitters in Decatur, IL

I am a college Junior studying Elementary Education with 6+ years of childcare experience. At 13 I started babysitting children outside of my family, and was hired on as an after school program employee for the Decatur School District at 15. Following my employment for the school district, I worked as a life guard and swim instructor where I taught necessary water safety skills, and recieved CPR, first aid, and BLS certifications four times over and even assisted in others training others. I have classroom experience from grades PreK-6th, from a variety of internships through my academic programs. As an education student, I have knowledge in developmentally appropriate practices, tutoring, and behavior management. I have also worked as a house cleaner independently alongside my mother, and am happy to help out with any household chores. I am looking forward to meeting with you!

I love being a sitter because I genuinely enjoy helping children feel safe, supported, and confident while giving parents peace of mind. Building trust with both kids and families is the most rewarding part for me.

Why do I love being with kids Because when I was growing up I was in foster care. When I was still living with my foster mother I helped with the kids all the time and watch when she was away. Everything that I need to know about kids I got it from my foster mom and so I have 5 years of experience with all ages.

I graduated college in 2022 with a degree in Culinary Arts. I’m very energetic mother of 3 and extremely passionate about kiddos! Safety is always a priority of mine. I’m skilled in meal prep, diaper changing, helping with homework, productive hands on activities, sleep tactics/etc. I do have a vehicle, so providing transportation or light grocery shopping is no problem for me. I’m a very patient person, with a fun bubbly personality. Feel free to reach out with any further questions or concerns!

Hi my name is Alyssa and I am a registered behavior technician for kids who have autism and I am CPR certified. What sets me apart is that I am kind and patient with children.
