Hi! My name is Alex. I grew up in the East Bay and have been living in San Francisco for over 10 years. I’m currently teaching 5th grade at a SFUSD public school. In the past, I have tutored for after school programs for elementary students, fostering great relationships with children and enjoying watching them grow and learn. I frequently babysit for children ages 2-10 years old but have experience with all age groups. I served in the Peace Corps (2[removed]) where I taught Literacy and English Langauge Arts in West Africa (Liberia & Sierra Leone). I also worked as a Special Education Paraeducator at a high school in the SFUSD before transitioning to my current position as a general education/multiple subject elementary teacher. I am currently available for as an occasional date night sitter that can use my experience to create a fun and caring environment for any child or children. I am open to babysitting weekends, weekdays, and special occasions. Thanks for looking at my profile.

Reliable and communicative. Will book again

Hello there! I majored in Child development in college and since graduating 11 years ago have had kids in my daily life ever since. I’ve loved teaching in toddler, two’s and many preschool classes over the years, I believe I learn as much from each age group as they learn from me. My true passion is discovering the interests of individual kids which is what I love about babysitting. I have nieces and enjoy taking to them to the playground and parks to ride bikes and scooters. We also enjoy exploring new eateries together. I’m a native San Franciscan so I love exploring the city with kids when possible. I also enjoy singing, doing indoor games and activities, art projects, etc whatever the child feels like that day!
