A little bit about me…

Hi! My name is Alexus and I have over 7 years of hands-on experience working with children of all ages. Child care has always been a passion of mine. I genuinely love spending time with kids, helping them grow, learn, and have fun in a safe and nurturing environment.
I’ve worked with families in a variety of settings, from part-time babysitting to full-time nanny roles, and I pride myself on being dependable, patient, and creative when it comes to engaging with children. Whether it’s helping with homework, organizing activities, or simply being a supportive presence, I always aim to make each child feel valued and cared for.
Currently, I’m a graduate student in college, furthering my education. My flexible schedule allows me to provide consistent, reliable care, and I’m always happy to work with families to find the right fit for their needs.
I look forward to meeting you and your family!
