Hi! My name is Alyson King, although I typically go by Aly. After spending the last few years running a paint studio, I plan now on transitioning back to school to finish my degree. Prior to my last job I worked full-time as a Montessori classroom assistant for toddlers and pre-schoolers. I'm also experienced as a full-time nanny, and I have almost 10 years of experience as a caregiver to children of all ages. I also have some experience as a housekeeper, errand-runner, and I can do meal-prep for all sorts of diets (I have some experience caring for children with a variety of dietary restrictions like IBS, Celiacs and gluten sensitivities, allergies, as well as various dietary philosophies). I have a reliable 2017 Mitsubishi that I can use to run errands or do pickups/drop offs, and a spotless driving record. I’ve been described as respectful, friendly, direct, sun-shiney, flexible, Read more patient, honest, and dependable. If something isn't working, I will always try to look for the best solution for the child. I have a passion for what I do: guiding, caring for, and being a positive influence and role model for children and adolescents, and I think being a caregiver is one of the most important jobs there is.
