Alexis $20 per hour for 1 child

Hello! I’m a registered nurse working in the labor & delivery unit that is looking for an occasional sitter job for my days off :) Growing up as the oldest girl with 4 younger siblings, I have been caring for children my entire life. In addition, my pediatrics rotation at CHOC has reminded me how much I love to be around children and their energy. I am naturally caring, outgoing, and empathetic with no problem engaging in play and conversation with children. More about me: I liked to spend my free time going to the beach (or anywhere outside), reading, hanging out with friends, or staying home watching movies with my cat.
