A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Ale. I am 25 years old college-graduate currently working as a Medical Assistant in Peoria,IL.

I am fluent in English, basic Spanish and I frequently assist a very diverse population of patients with translation services.

I am not available during Mon-Wed, as I am working. Thurs after 5PM. On Fri I am available from 1:45PM-on, especially for school pickups! On Sat/Sun I am fully available!

I have lots of experience working with children. I come from a big family, and I am the oldest child. My earliest memories include helping my SAH mom keep up with my incredibly quick younger siblings/cousins.

In addition, I was a full-time Nanny in HS during the summer. I am now working full-time within my Medical Assisting degree, but I do miss working with my little guys terribly!

I do not have any children of my own, as I am actively trying to build my career, but I do love listening to children’s ideas and watching them grow into the best little versions of themselves.

More About Me

Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...

- I nannied for a family with 3 children (ages 4-11), another family with 2 children (ages infant-2), and another family with 4 children (ages 2-10). I am not above changing a diaper if needed! Lol.

-I have volunteered to teach art classes in elementary schools with my mother’s non-profit named “MC Art Collective”.

-In highschool, I took a class that allowed me to spend the last 3 hours of the school day in the elementary school of which I helped the kids practice their spelling words, monitored recess, and any other help the teacher needed.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

-Art!

-Going outside

-“Field trips” to parks, museums, pools, etc. (with parental approval, of course!)

-Helping the kids with important development skills such as the ABCs, color identification, spelling words, etc.

The most important part about being a nanny...

Firstly, being patient! Every child comes with a specific set of needs and it takes time and patience to learn what they are trying to communicate with their behavior.
Secondly, being reliable! The kids deserve a consistent figure in their lives, even when it comes to caretakers.

My experience with special needs children...

I have taken a college course specializing in IEPs and 504 Plans.
I have direct hands-on experience with children diagnosed with ADHD, Sanfillippo Syndrome, and ASD.
Lastly, I am the child of a parent with a physical disability (Multiple Sclerosis). This has taught me how to be resilient, helpful, and non-judgmental from a very young age.

The most important part about being a nanny...

One of the families I worked with lived on a farm, which comes with a lot of responsibilities for the kids. The kids taught me A LOT about farm work and how to be a “cowboy” (that was all of their fixation lol). I loved listening to their stories and their explanations. We had a lot of fun running freely in their giant yard, while I ensured they were making smart, safe choices. I still keep in contact with this family and I love them so big!
