Hi! My name is Alexandra Paretta. I am 31 years old and a very experienced care-giver. I received my Bachelor's Degree in 2014 from San Diego State University with a B.A. in Pscyhology. I have my Early Childhood Education (ECE) credentials that certify me as a licensed care-giver and pre-school teacher by the state of California. I began babysitting at age 14, teaching swim lessons at age 15, and teaching pre-school at age 22. I have extensive knowledge in caring for children ages 0-5 and am skilled at meeting the needs of newborns and infants. I absolutely adore children and am passionate about being a positive role model, educator, discipliner, and care-giver. I love to sing songs, play games, practice the alphabet and counting numbers, color and any other activity that stimulates healthy stages of both body and brain development. I have my own transportation, am a non-smoker, and am Read more comfortable with pets. I am also okay with taking care of sick children and helping potty train. At the moment I am seeking part-time childcare work for 20-28 hours per week. Message me if you'd like to chat and see how I can offer help for your family!
