About Alexandra
Experience: 9 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
My name is Alexandra and I am currently a student at UMass Amherst. Since I was 15 years old, I have been caring for children. My first experience was with my second cousin's daughter. Initially, I helped her take care of her infant (bottle feeding, changing diapers, bathing, putting to sleep). I had the joy to witness her grow older and I was able to help her with her school assignments and extracurricular activities. After this first exposure to babysitting, I have consistently been seeking out jobs that orbit around child care. Overall, I have taken care of 12 children. My involvement in their lives has been constant and seeing them grow older is a reward I cherish deeply. My most recent experience was with a little girl of 3 months. I was with the family for three months over this past summer in Maryland, where I had a research internship as well. During this time, I stayed in house with the family and offered child care assistance.

Such a caring professional, we wish we could have worked with Alexandra longer. Our little guy absolutely loved her and we felt so comfortable leaving when we knew she was there. Even helped when he was so sick and miserable and she was wonderful. So caring, so lovely and knows kids. I have to add that our house was always cleaner than when we left, though I have no idea how she managed that while chasing our toddler around!
