Hello, my name is Alexis Canales. Thank you for considering me as a caregiver for your family! Roles I have held in childcare include: 1. Babysitter 2. Dance Instructor 3. Nature Camp Counselor 4. Certified Applied Behavior Analyst Skills I have include: 1. Cooking & Meal Prep (I have been cooking family meals since I was 9 years old and I've worked professionally in kitchens.) 2. K-12 Academic Tutoring (I am very passionate about education in and out of school, I have fantastic organizational study skills and would be happy to assist in academic excellence) 3. Arts & Crafts (I have a multitude of creative projects I would enjoy facilitating, I think art is a wonderfully creative way to express yourself!) 4. Performing Arts & Dance Teaching (I have danced in studios for 10+ years, competed, taught, competed in pageants, and enjoy activities pertaining to the arts.) 5. Chauffeuring (I Read more have a clean driving record and am very safe & defensive on the road.) 6. Laundry & Home Help. (I have great housekeeping skills and can properly care for a variety of laundry needs. Not included in base childcare rate. Details TBD.) More about me: I grew up in Santa Cruz, California. My father is an established Silicon Valley computer engineer/F500 tech exec. My mother has a masters in Experimental Psychology and did social work & therapy before transitioning to being a full-time stay at home mom. As a child I enjoyed playing outside on my bike, going to the beach, making up dances to songs, drawing, taking photos, and expressing myself creatively. Hobbies I enjoy now include dance, martial arts, climbing, photography, and cooking. I have an A.A in Psychology and am currently a student at CSU East Bay pursuing a Bachelors of Business Administration with a concentration in Entrepreneurship. My bookshelf is filled with non-fiction books pertaining to neuroscience, biology, psychology, and philosophy. I am vaccinated, politically liberal, agnostic & comfortable around a wide variety of religions and backgrounds. I love spending time with kids because they are the future, I believe every child deserves to feel loved and empowered as they learn how to navigate the world and understand themselves. I'm very patient, protective, and positive-minded. I feel very connected to my "inner child" and I hope to one day raise a family of my own! If you think we may be a good match,
