A little bit about me

Hi my name is Evan Alexander!
I am a college student at Illinois College and looking for opportunities to become a nanny this summer. I am looking to get into the child care field so this would be a great start. I have some experience babysitting and I am comfortable with helping around the house and cooking food. I am not currently CPR and First Aid certified but I could make that happen and I was a certified lifeguard for almost 4 years. I am great with allergies and other dietary needs because I am someone who has struggled with them myself. I can work with multiple children at once if that's what you are in need of.
