A little bit about me

Hi, I am Alexandra, I graduated from Streetsboro High School in 2022 and I am currently in my sophomore year at The University of Akron.

I currently am a DSP with Independence of Portage Country where I care for individuals with developmental disabilities. I am CPR, med, and first aid certified (certified for the next few years).
I am conscientious, reliable, and patient. I can help with travel and driving. I am willing to sit pets, children, run errands, and do housework. I would love to create activities and adventures. I will enforce your rules only and never overstep boundaries. I am an auntie to an amazing little girl and boy and babysit them as needed, so I find that relatability and empathy play a big part in successful care. I also have experience with multiple types of pets. I am a big dog and cat lover and would gladly take on a few at a time.
