About Alyssa

I am a mother of 4 beautiful children. I come from a big family and being the oldest child, I was always the responsible one. I come from a long line of healthcare workers, having been introduced to the field as a child. I started working in the field myself at 18 years old and have continued to look for ways to grow. I am flexible and always willing to go the extra mile. I love new tasks and challenges! I am great with families, adults and children. I work well with all types of personalities and am great at adjusting to situations and needs.
