Hi! I’m Alexia, an 18-year-old who absolutely loves working with kids. I’ve always been the go-to sitter for family and friends because I genuinely enjoy helping kids learn, have fun, and feel safe while their parents are away. I have experience caring for children of different ages, from toddlers to school-age kids. I’m comfortable with everything from playtime and crafts to meals, homework, and bedtime routines. During highschool I had an opportunity to be in a program helping with GEN ed and Special ed children giving me experience outside of homes and in our community in schools and other buildings. I always do my best to make sure the kids I watch feel happy, supported, and cared for. I’m responsible, patient, and very dependable — families know they can count on me to show up on time and handle any situation calmly. I’m great at keeping things organized and clean. I’d love to bring my positive energy and care to your family and make sure your kids are in good hands!

I’ve been around childcare my entire life. My parents owned a childcare center in the 90s and brought it to Indiana in the early 2000s, so growing up I was always surrounded by children of all ages. Because of that, I learned early on how to help create a safe, structured, and nurturing environment. I officially started assisting in the childcare setting at age 13, helping with daily routines, meals, activities, and supervision. Over the years, I’ve gained experience with feeding, hygiene, engaging children in developmental activities, keeping them safe, and understanding different behaviors and needs. I am also CPR and First Aid certified, which has strengthened my ability to handle emergencies and provide safe, attentive care. Being raised in that environment taught me patience, responsibility, and how to care for others with kindness and consistency. Those skills translate directly into caregiving, because I’m already comfortable supporting someone’s daily needs and making sure they feel safe and cared for.

My name is Robin. I am 31 years old. I have 3 children of my own(14, 9, and 2) all girls! I do not smoke or drink. I currently work at Help at Home. It is a company based out of valpo that helps adults and children with special needs. I work on the DD Side(developmental disabled) as a Direct Support Professional. I have been with the company since March 3,2011. I love my job and I do not plan on leaving it anytime soon. I have great references and have amazing patience with kids and babies!! Especially colicky ones. I am also CPR Certified and I have a valid license with a good record, can pass a drug test and background checks. Normally I work evenings and weekends and stay home with my 2 year old and my husband works days then he watches the baby so i can work lol... I work 30 hours at a supported living site between friday(6pm) and Sunday (4pm) and I work on Wednesday and Thursday from 5pm to 9pm. My weekend clients that I work 30 hours for have behaviors and my other client that I work for just needs me to take her out shopping and get groceries and hang out and stuff of that nature. So I can get more hours at the job I am at but they don't really have overtime to offer. My husband is going in for surgery may 24th to have double hernia surgery so he will be out of work for 6 to 8 weeks. I really need another job in doing something that I love. I am very reliable I love spending time with my kids and it may sound strange that I am applying for a job to take care of other peoples kids but its something I am good at So please do not get the wrong impression of me because the truth is if I could I would be at home with my kids and not have to work I would treat your children as if they were my own kids and I think I am a great mother Please give me a chance As far as pay goes I am very fair... Open to a decent offer. I will be affordable for your family
