Before/After School Care with Transportation
Hello!
My name is Alyssa, but off paper, I go by Alys. A little bit about me, I am a single mom that also shares a passion for caring for the community. I have experience in Caregiving and currently work at a Suicide Prevention Center. I love psychology and hope to become a DV Therapist one day. Because of this, I am passionate about ensuring I parent my 4 year old son, Arlo, in a Montessori style that aligns closely with what care professionals practice with their patients. I have one cat, Rudy, who is a Norwegian Forest cat. He is very friendly but mostly keeps to himself. You won't need to provide any care for him, unless it's pets and snuggles of course haha.
I am looking for Before/After school care with transportation to and from school. Arlo will be attending a Montessori school starting on 9/25 but I would need your services to start on 10/8 or as soon as possible. Due to Arlo having 50/50 custody with his Father and the school schedule starting at a staggered start schedule before moving to a full day schedule, here is what the schedule would look like for the first couple weeks.
Wed 10/8: (School pickup) 12 pm - 5 pm
Thurs 10/9: 7 am - 8:30 am (School drop off) and 12 pm - 5 pm
............
Mon 10/13: 7 am - 8:30 am Wed 10/15: 3 pm - 5 pm Thurs 10/16: 7 am - 8:30 am and 3 pm - 5 pm
Wed 10/22: 3 pm - 5 pm Thurs 10/23: 7 am - 8:30 am and 3 pm- 5 pm
The schedule from 10/13 - 10/23 would alternate, so... The next week (10/27) would be the same schedule as 10/13 - 10/16, Then the following week (11/5) would be the same schedule as 10/22 -10/23 and continue alternating from there. Arlo's school is about 12 minutes away from our apartment so it is a fairly short drive.
I do have information requirements I must meet for mine and father's court order that will need to be shared with him as well, in the event of an emergency. This will require your full name (to be confirmed with your ID) and phone number to be shared with him.
On a personal note, I would also like to do my own due diligence and perform a background check and also ask for a picture of your ID and a 3 year driving record be provided to confirm Arlo's safety for school drop off's and pick up's. I understand this is not legally required and if you are not comfortable sharing this information that is perfectly ok, but at that point I would be concerned of reckless driving that is being hidden and would not be able to move forward. I do understand that accidents/mistakes happen though and that context of any situation is extremely important. Honesty goes a long way with me and I am more than open to discussion (no shade, no cap).
I will also provide you with a copy of our court order that includes both mine and Father's information (pictures of our ID's).
If you have any questions or concerns please don't hesitate to ask! I don't have a village to rely on for childcare and would love the opportunity to get to know you and hope we are a good fit for each other. I hope everything works out and that I hear from you soon. I'm looking forward to meeting you!
