Meet Alissa

My name is Alissa Dykstra. I have a huge heart, such a blessing and a curse, and i really just love working with kids. My dream is to open up my own clinic for special needs children. I'm going to school at KVCC to get my Gen eds to transfer to westerns special education program. Im currently working in the transport department at Borgess but looking for a new job that applies more towards my major. I have my CNA, and worked at the veterans home in GR this summer. I have always loved helping and caring for people. If you chose me to Nanny your child i promise it will be the best care provided. My class schedule is 8am-1:50pm on Mondays and Wednesdays so my availability is very open. Along with providing care, i can run errands, keep the house clean and care for pets if necessary. Please Read more email me if you have any other questions!
