Hey there, I am from Dallas but I am also a college student at the University of Texas in Austin. I commute back and forth on multiple occasions. I have my associates degree and currently obtaining my Bachelor's of Science in Human Development and Family Services with a primary focus on childcare. My future goals include working as a Child Life Specialist or a Pediatric Nurse. I love being a babysitter and have been watching newborns, infants, and toddlers for 3 years now. I have two younger brothers. I was on 24 hour care for my first brother during COVID and take a great deal in clean, safe environments. My second brother has medical conditions that I have learned to care for as well. I am open to sick care, and I consider myself adaptive to parents’ child care routines. In addition to family, I work at a range of Read more churches providing services in the nursery for children aged 6wks-10yrs in groups of 2-4. I have also sat for multiple families from 1 year olds to 8 year olds. I am very comfortable with newborns and infants, and my care for them is my main passion in childcare. I am open to light house cleaning when time allows and requested. I consider myself naturally nurturing and patient with little ones. My responsibilities have included driving to/ from doctors appointments, occasional cleaning, and light cooking. On another note, I have two dogs that I deeply love and spend time with. A larger dog and a smaller dog. Being outdoors with them is the highlight of their day. Besides being outdoors, my main hobby includes yoga that I have grown an interest for. I would love to incorporate yoga into a fun activity for your little one.

Alexys is the best. We've been working with her for about 6 months now, and our daughter loves her. They play at home on Tuesday's and go out for sushi dates on Thursdays. After only a week of adjustment, she is successful able get fee, bath, brush teeth, read books and most importantly get our daughter to fall asleep with zero issues. I'm always impressed when we get home and our daughter is already asleep. She's responsible, punctual, trust worthy, easy to talk to, kind, generous, you name it. A great sitter/nanny all around!

Alexys is great! Responsive, on time, has a great understanding of child development and children’s needs. Definitely recommend - as our 7yr old says when asked how it went, “good. REALLY good!”

Alexys was great taking care of our one-year-old when she was sick! She was very good and getting our shy little girl to warm up to her and I could tell my daughter really felt comfortable with her by the end of the day. I would absolutely hire Alexys again!
