Meet Alexandra
- Comfortable with pets
I'm 23 years old and just graduated with honors with a BA in Neurobiology. I have worked 4.5 years at a preschool with a semi-Montessori style of teaching, ages ranging 1-5. Due to my leadership skills, I was often left in charge of a classroom. I am professionally certified to work in child care and am also CPR certified. I have experience giving small lessons to children ages 1-5 and love to answer their questions about the world around them. I also have extensive babysitting experience. I gained the trust of the parents of the children enrolled at the school- I was often hired to babysit their children after school and on the weekends. For 2 years, I picked up a child (age 10) from school and drove her home or to various after school activities. After I took her home and made dinner, I would help her with her Read more homework or played games until her parents came home. When her school was closed for a holiday, I spent the day playing with her at home or doing fun activities such as going bowling. I came to love and care for her, almost as if she were family; I became good friends with her and her family. I have never loved another job like I have at the preschool or babysitting. I don't even consider it as a job. I get to play with kids and watch them grow- what can be more fun and rewarding than that? If your family and I are a good fit just know that I will be extremely dedicated and responsible.
