Hi! My name is Alyssa--I'm 29 years old and currently a substitute teacher and applying to nursing school (projected to start January 2026). I plan to work as an ER pediatric nurse for a few years, then continue my journey as a physician. I have 3 years of medical school under my belt but have decided to step away from the physician life for a bit to pursue pediatric nursing and emergency care. Ultimately, my goal is to run the ERs here in Houston as a physician. As of now, I substitute during the week (7AM-4PM; end date: May 29th) and babysit on the side. My current schedule makes pickup up last minute/date nights easy. However, I am looking for a solid summer job as a babysitter starting May 30th (availability Monday-Saturday 7AM-6PM). My background in child care started at a young age--I raised my 2 younger brothers and know Read more the activity level boys may require but am also in touch with my girly and nerdy side, so I know the more lively, talkative side a girl may require and the relaxed, interested side a techy or gifted kiddo may require. I was a D1/D2 collegiate athlete in undergrad, so I am into sports! I also have 2 dogs and a cat, so I love animals and have no problem helping out with them. I have a car with a clean title and a clean driving record--I uber on the side so driving is no problem for me. I am located in the EaDo area; I don't mind longer distance drives with a little gas help included. Please reach out to me if you have any questions! I look forward to hearing from you :)
