Hi! I have been a babysitter/nanny on the side for years! I come from a large family and plenty of experience, so there’s nothing I haven’t seen! I love playing outside or creating new activities for your kids to enjoy. I am comfortable with pets, doing house chores and anything your child(ren) need always finding ways for them to have fun! I am CPR & First Aid certified with experience with children of all ages!

ā€œAlyssa is wonderful! She is communicative, kind, experienced, prompt, and flexible. She was great with our 10 month old daughter and I will definitely book her again :-)ā€

$25 per hour for 1 child

NICU Registered Nurse with more than 20 years of experience caring for newborns, infants, and children. I specialize in newborn and infant care, including overnight newborn support, care for premature infants, and helping families adjust during the early weeks at home. As a mother of three and an experienced healthcare professional, I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy, calm, and dependable to care for your child. Families can feel confident knowing their children are in capable, experienced hands. I am available for date nights, occasional childcare, overnight newborn care, and recurring childcare needs. My hospital schedule varies, but I can often accommodate advance scheduling and ongoing arrangements. Outside of work, I enjoy horseback riding, gardening, and spending time with my family.
