A little bit about me
Hello, my name is Aleya, and I’m 25 years old. I hold an associate degree in social work and am currently trying to work toward my bachelor’s and master’s degrees. I also recently graduated from esthetician school and am studying for my licensing exam. I have a strong background working with children and caring for family members with disabilities. Since fourth grade, I’ve helped my aunt care for my cousin who has a disability, and I continue to support both her and my grandmother to this day. These experiences have taught me patience, compassion, and responsibility—qualities I bring into every childcare role. I truly enjoy being around children, creating a safe and positive environment for them, and helping others in any way I can. I recently became a behavioral technician working with kids with autism!!! Very great experience.
