I am a 29-year-old Freelance Graphic Designer who loves working with children. I make it my priority to form close bonds with those families that I work with/for and think it is very important to nurture the creative side of kids at every age. I enjoy engaging kids in exciting activities which pull them away from the computer/tv and help to stimulate their learning capabilities. My background in art helps me to encourage kids to use their imagination and just have fun! I also have a great love of sports which I like to express with outdoor games when possible. I have been babysitting for various families since I was 14 years old and it is one of the things that I miss most since starting my career. I also have experience as a nanny, as a camp counselor at an art studio, for a date night sitting service and as Read more a mentor to younger girl scouts. I have experience with all ages ranging from infants to middle school. This experience includes changing diapers, bottle feeding or cooking meals, bathing, homework help and bedtime routines. Feel free to contact me for references.

Alyssa was perfect. Our son was a little shy at first, but she interacted with him so wonderfully that he barely noticed when we left. I was running late the night she worked for us, and had to rush around a bit to get to our night out, but she had no problems learning the routine quickly and asked all the right questions. And our son is eager to see her again hopefully!
