Hi there! My name is Alyssa and I'd love to work for you and your family. I am 23 years old and studying to be a general/special education/music education teacher from ages pre k - 6th grade at St Joseph's College. I currently live on Long Island but I'll be living in Brooklyn for the summer. I have been working with children for 7 years. At 17 years old, I started working for Saf-T-Swim I taught swimming lessons and lifeguarded for two years. From there, I began nannying for so many different families and teaching private swimming lessons. Also having experience teaching in pre schools and elementary schools. People would describe me as an energetic multi-tasker, creative, lover of arts and crafts/music, explorer, responsible, active, playful, kind, extremely patient, intelligent, pays attention to detail, and committed!
