A little bit about me
Hi everyone,
My name is Alexa. I have worked with kids the past 3 years. I am RBT and CPR certified and have worked with kids who are on the spectrum. I currently work at a preschool where we ensure our kiddos are structured and use functional communication. Since I am going back to school in August for my teacher's credential, I will need to quit my current job to make sure I focus on school. However, I still want to be working with kids as my career will revolve around kids.

Hello! My name is Kailey Thompson, and I’m a student at California State University, San Marcos, majoring in Child Development. I’ll be graduating in the spring of 2026, and I’m passionate about helping children learn, grow, and feel supported.
I’ve been babysitting for about seven years and have cared for children of many different ages. I truly enjoy spending time with kids, whether that means playing games, helping with homework, going on walks, or doing arts and crafts. I always aim to create a fun, safe, and nurturing environment where children feel comfortable and happy.
I consider myself a friendly, active, and positive person who loves making people around me smile. I’m dependable, patient, and always do my best to adapt to each family’s needs and routines. In addition to childcare, I’m happy to help with light housekeeping to help keep things running smoothly at home.
I look forward to connecting with families who value kindness, creativity, and care.
