Alex $25 per hour for 1 child

I truly enjoy working with children and helping them learn, grow, and explore the world around them in a safe and nurturing environment. I’m 23 years old and have six years of experience working with kids, which has helped me develop strong patience, creativity, and communication skills. I love spending quality time with my family, and I bring that same warmth and positive energy into my caregiving. I’m also an animal lover and feel comfortable around pets, which helps create a caring and welcoming atmosphere in any home. I recently moved to Texas from California, where I worked in a toddler classroom at a Spanish immersion Montessori school. That experience strengthened my knowledge of child development and creating engaging, age-appropriate activities that support learning through play.
