Booked by 25 families in Gilbert, AZ

Hello, my name is Alexia. Over the past 5 years I've been babysitting for a family that have fostered and adopted children and they've become like a second family to me. I have experience with newborns/infants, toddlers, twins, elementary, pre-teen and teenagers. I also have experience taking care of multiple children at a time. I've worked nights (bedtime routine) and overnights (morning routine) which consists of waking kids up, getting them ready, breakfast, pack lunches and drop off at bus stop when mom and dad are out of town. I serve/volunteer on Sunday mornings in the nursery at my local church since 2011. I have previous experience as a medical assistant but I'm currently taking a break from that role. I enjoy babysitting children of all ages. I love seeing them grow and teaching them new things! Children are amazing and incredibly adorable!

Did an amazing job and will rehire as needed.

Booked by 4 families in Gilbert, AZ

Hello! My name is Kea. I am 28 and am a former elementary teacher who is passionate about child development! I taught for 4 years, and before that I was a teacher's assistant for 6 years as well as a babysitter for 4 years. While I have moved away from the teaching field for more of a work-life balance, my passion for child development has continued on. I would love to continue helping children grow and learn without making it a full time basis. In my free time I love reading, scrapbooking, and spending time outdoors.
