Hello! My name is Kelsey and I’m 19 years old. I’m currently attending Iowa State University studying Early Childhood Education. I plan to graduate in the spring of 2021. I’ve been babysitting ever since I was 13 years old. I am CPR certified. I started working at the 2000 Days Learning Experience in Gilber, my first year at Iowa State and I have gained lots of knowledge and experience. Thus far, I’ve gotten the chance to work with twins, special needs children, and multiple children all at once. I spent the last summer babysitting a family with 3 children, as well as watching my 1 year old cousin 2 days of the week, on top of the other 3. We spent many days going to the pool and also finding fun ways to cool off inside. One of the children was in a wheelchair for the summer, so I also Read more have experience with helping him and his needs as well. The family also had a big friendly dog. I grew up on a farm so I’ve always been pretty comfortable with pets. I would love to meet you and your family and help out with some occasional date nights, etc.
