Hi there, I'm Alexis! I've cared for children in both home and camp/school settings for over 10 years. I'd love to meet your family! With experience as an art teacher, a volleyball coach, a babysitter, and a tutor, I have a wide range of experience working with kids! I'm excited to meet you!
“Alexis has been watching my 2 year old since he was around 6 months, and has been a staple for our family. She is responsive, reliable and always punctual. Alexis is so great with our son, and he really looks forward to their time together. Leaving him with her is never a concern, and something our whole family looks forward to. I cannot recommend Alexis highly enough.”
