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 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.
