Hi there! My name is Alijah. I will be graduating from Duke University on May 13th, with a degree in Psychology and Human Development. I'll be home in Berkley for the summer, then I'll be off to the University of Michigan to get my Masters in Social Work. I've been babysitting for other families since I was 11 (10+ years ago) but have been helping my mom care for my younger sister since long before that. I've since had experience caring for children of all ages, including individuals with communication and behavioral difficulties. That being said, I have a particular knack for caring for infants and love being able to help new moms! My available hours are an estimate (besides the hard start date of May 14th, because I'm stuck in North Carolina until then), so please don't hesitate to reach out!
