Sittercity helps Dalton families find the best nannies

Hello! I'm Alexia, an occupational therapy student at the University of New Hampshire. I’m currently one of my internships for my degree in the Berkshires in a pediatric mental health setting. I absolutely love working with kids and have many years of formal and informal experience. I started out babysitting my younger cousin when I was around 12 and still have an amazing relationship with her today. I have also watched many of my parents' friends' children, of all different ages. I have professional experience working as a summer school and substitute teacher and as a therapeutic training and support specialist for children with mental and behavioral health needs. Some of my favorite things are animals, spending time outdoors, traveling, art/crafting, and baking; all experiences I would be delighted in sharing with your family. My friends and family would describe me as bubbly and on-the-go, I never waste time always trying to make the most of every moment. I love to learn and am more than willing to help kids with homework and other learning opportunities!

I’m a grad student getting my Master’s in Education for School Counseling, where I focus on art therapy and mindfulness. I am an artist myself and love doing arts and crafts with kids!

I love taking care of children. I play games with them and I am a certified Lifegaurd so I can bring them swimming and ensure their safety at all times. I have babysat for 3 years, I am very experienced I have my license. I can drive them around if the parents request it. I change diapers without a problem. My favorite thing about kids is the fact that they always make you laugh.

I began watching children at a young age by being a big sister, caring for family members, and eventually family friends children as well. At 18 years old I began my professional career as a nanny. I have a background in early childhood education, and have also gone to school briefly for psychology. I have background nannying in a Montessori household, as well as other households with different beliefs. My extensive childcare experiences, as well as educational background, I can successfully take care of your children and manage a household. As a productive and vibrant person, I have worked with many young children and enjoyed engaging them in imaginative, and outdoor activities. I have a history of arranging fun engaging activities, and overseeing the children's development. Additionally, I am able to provide care throughout the day including educational play, meal preparation, light housekeeping duties, trips to the park or library, and other activities that may encourage development. I am comfortable playing with the children, reading books, and having primary focus on them. I am a non-smoker, physically fit, I am a very hard worker, and am able to maintain confidentiality. My employers would note me as a calm, resourceful, and impactful nanny who is able to take charge and make decisions based on the guidelines of parents. My childcare skills, with my upbeat attitude and friendly nature, will help me succeed in any nanny role. I would love the opportunity to work with you and your family. Thanks so much for your time. -Alyssa
