Alexis is absolutely wonderful! She’s so great with our two children (ages 2 and 4), and we are lucky to have found her. She’s patient (no easy feat with two little ones!), flexible, attentive to detail, excellent at communicating, and always so thoughtful and kind. Our kids love her. (And we do, too!) ☺️

Hello! My name is Perla, I am 21 currently in my second year of college studying nursing. I am very energetic, kind and I have a really positive attitude! I genuinely love caring and helping kids and people. I grew up taking care of my little sisters and Ive been volunteering at my church’s daycare since I was 13. I volunteered at a middle school after school program with kids during my junior and senior year of high school as well as volunteering in my own highschool programs as well. I got my first job working with prek-6th grade when I was 15. I now have been currently working for a few years with middle school and high schoolers in a program. I am a certified nurse assistant/aide and I also have an emergency medical responder certification. I am bilingual and speak fluent Spanish. I am so exited and ready to create a fun, safe and supportive environment! You can text me at 6125981701 if that’s easier too!!

After my "journalism" career (too many ad agencies and a faltering book industry), I began working with children, the elderly, and pets. Being a trusted, reliable presence in their lives provides a life balance that I enjoy, and utilizing a care provider with a good attitude is beneficial for everyone involved. For a few years (until I broke my arm skiing), I worked part-time as a CNA (Nursing Assistant), but began spending more time as a substitute for teachers and paraprofessionals in local schools. When Covid came along, I teamed up with a family who wanted to keep a close watch on safety for their premature baby. I was lucky to find a temporary position that allowed me to return to this family to care for their second child, who is now in pre-school (I still babysit on their "date nights"). I have raised two sons, one diagnosed with ADHD and the other with high-functioning autism, conditions that often swim in the same genetic pool. I played on their strengths when offering activity choices to them, and today they are both doing well as young adults following their own career paths. When my children were very young, I taught Sunday school to grade-school-aged children while running a licensed in-home childcare center. I love to do individual outdoor activities that match the weather. I tend to eat very well -- my goal is to retain as much of my physical, spiritual, and mental health as possible. I love sharing this knowledge with little ones and helping them to grow into who they were meant to become.

I have always had a genuine love for children and find it incredibly rewarding to care for them, encourage them, and be a positive presence in their lives. I have been an LPN for six years, working in family medicine and pediatrics, where I’ve had the opportunity to care for children of different ages and support their families. My nursing experience has taught me the importance of patience, compassion, safety, communication, and being someone families can depend on. I’m now looking to transition from the clinical setting into a more personal caregiving role, where I can build meaningful relationships with the children and families I care for. My Christian faith is an important part of my life, and I attend church regularly. I also previously volunteered at a church in Winona, helping with their preschool group, which further grew my love for working with children. I would describe myself as kind, compassionate, patient, nurturing, and dependable. I understand how much trust it takes to place your children in someone else’s care, and my goal is to provide a safe, loving, fun, and supportive environment where children feel comfortable and cared for.

Id like to share a bit about myself, I’m Ellie, I’ve worked with children my for what feels like my whole life… being the family babysitter I’ve always loved kids, childcare centers became my life the last few years after graduating in 2020. A bit about my childcare history! I’ve been working with kids for years, ranging all over, 6 weeks- middle school. Nannying, working in centers, even after school care in the district.. I like to say “bottles, diapers, and messy crafts are my specialty” I worked within my local school district, (Anoka Hennepin) for A+ after school in high school working with school aged kiddos, nannying weekends! After highschool I jumped full time into childcare centers. Growing Generations - during my role here i got to expand my experience in so many different ways. I worked all age groups, infant room, older infant, toddlers, young pre, older pre, planning events, curriculum, crafts, and my favorite… sensory learning play Primrose- I was an infant room teacher, planning sensory learning play, helping reach milestones, building confidence, helping babies transition from bottles, to purée, to table food. I bit about myself! I’m located outside the twin cities near Blaine but I have my own car, a clean driving record as well as I’m always up for a ride to the next town over. Some hobbies are cooking, baking, DIY’s, crafting, exploring the outdoors, traveling, modeling, camping, s hanging with friends and family, spending time with my pup and my moms favorite… cleaning and organizing. I’ve always loved working with kids, Creating a bond, a safe place, helping them learn, reach milestones, build confidence, making memories, etc! Though I love working within the centers, planning curriculum, crafts, and weekly activities.. after a few years I’ve recently have decided to try stepping out of my comfort zone, shifting my focus in my education and career. I am hoping to find a family to connect and build a relationship with in the process of this next part of my life!
