I’ve spent the last two years immersed in childcare, and I can honestly say it’s one of my greatest passions. Growing up as the older sister of five, I’ve always had a natural inclination to care for others. From a young age, I took on the responsibility of looking after my siblings, which laid the foundation for my love of working with children. Every day in my childcare role feels like an adventure. I thrive on the energy and curiosity that children bring into the world. Whether it’s playing games, reading stories, or simply being there to listen, I find immense joy in nurturing their development. It’s incredibly rewarding to watch them grow, learn, and discover new things. I believe that every child is unique, and I strive to create a supportive environment where they can express themselves freely. My experience with my siblings has taught me patience and empathy, qualities that I carry into my work every day. I truly love what I do, and I can’t imagine my life without the laughter and joy that working with children brings me.

Hello, I've been caring for a variety of children for many years. I have over 12 years of experience including children of my own, elementary school teacher, at-home child care, summer camp counselor, working at a child care facility, and full time summer nanny. I graduated from the University of Northern Iowa in 2012 with a Bachelor's Degree in Elementary Education and Early Childhood Education. I graduated from the University of Central Missouri with a masters in Educational Technology. Looking for a few hours to yourself in the morning? Want to run errands by yourself or take your other children to appointments without a toddler in tow? Want to attend that workout class at the gym that doesn’t have childcare? Want a play buddy for your little one? Looking for part-time childcare that is flexible? If so, let’s chat! After teaching for 12 years, I decided to become a stay-at-home mom to raise our two sons. Now that our oldest is off to preschool for the day, our two year old is looking for a play buddy for a few hours in the morning and I’m looking for a way to continue my love of teaching young children. Days and times can be flexible, but mostly between the hours of 8:15am-1:00pm. Message me if you feel this would be a good fit for your family and we can discuss details and rates. Looking forward to meeting your family!

Hello! Need a break? A date night? Errands? Light housekeeping? I can lend a hand. I’m a mom of 4 sons (3 are adults and 1 teen) and also have a granddaughter. So I am well explained with children. I’m also a part time RN with 26 years of nursing experience. I’m CPR certified. I have experience with newborns and worked in labor and delivery for 18 + years. I also worked in pediatrics. I’m looking for flexible hours to help with babysitting, pet sitting, caregiving, house sitting and more. My availability varies. I could help out on occasional Tuesdays/Thursdays, some weekends and evenings. I look forward to helping families in the Cedar Rapids area, but I’m willing to travel to smaller, surroundings towns as well. Please feel free to reach out if I can help you out!
