Hi! My girls are grown and I’m looking to earn some extra money part-time. I know that it’s hard to find someone trustworthy and reliable. I consider myself a Mom wanting to help other moms and dads have an occasional day or night off and know that their babies are well taken care of. I love reading and books and all kinds of music.
Hello everyone, I'm Alyssa and currently a student studying at UW. I mostly will be available T/Thursday mornings and M/W/F afternoons to evenings due to my school schedule. I do work another part time job at a hospital so my weekends have to be scheduled a month in advance, though sometimes I will have openings! I work best with shy and artistic kids as I used to be one myself. I am great at keeping an eye on kids, but not great with super high energy kids. I don't drive so I will typically show up 30 minutes in advance, and can't really transport the kids anywhere unless you're wanting me to Uber them. I'm great at winding down kids and getting them to bed, and would be willing to clean up your place afterwards if it's an overnight shift and you mention it. Will always make sure the messes the kids make get cleaned up! I have CPR and First Aid Training for adults. Thanks everyone! 😊
I have a Master of Education and have been working with children for over ten years. I am kind and provide joyful experiences for kids while they are with me. I look forward to caring for your child/children while you are away.
