Caring for kiddos is such a fun experience and I am always honored to be trusted as a safe person in someone’s “village.” I pay great attention to detail and truly focus on caring for the children the exact way their parent(s) want them cared for. I am outgoing and passionate, and prioritize connecting with each kid I care for. I have experience with children ages newborn all the way up to preteens and early teens. I have experience with twins of various ages, children with ADHD and on the autism spectrum, and up to 5 children at a time!

Kinsey K.
- 5 years paid experience

Hi! I’m Kinsey, an Elementary Education major at Iowa State University and future teacher 😊 I have experience working with children in classrooms, camps, substitute teaching, and as a lead teacher in an infant room, so I’m very comfortable caring for all ages and managing multiple children while keeping routines calm and structured but fun. I love planning activities beyond screens such as crafts, outdoor play, reading time, learning games, and local outings. I’m dependable, organized, and patient. I balance fun and expectations so kids feel comfortable while still listening and staying safe. I’m available full time May through August and looking for a consistent summer position. I’m also happy to help with light housekeeping, meal prep, transportation, and keeping kids engaged during the day while parents work. Families often like having an education major because I can support reading, writing, and learning throughout the summer so kids stay active and confident going into the next school year. I’d love to connect and see if we’re a good fit for your family!

Hi, I'm Addy! I've always had a love for children and enjoy watching them grow and learn. I'm naturally nurturing, patient, and love creating a fun, safe environment. I worked at an early learning center for a year in high school and later as a CNA in a nursing home, which helped me build strong caregiving skills. I'm currently a full-time esthetician and business owner, but I miss being around kids and would love to incorporate that back into my life. I also have a nephew and niece under 2 who I adore, which has only grown my passion for childcare. I'm dependable, caring, and excited to support your family!

Rylee M.
- 6 years paid experience
- 13 miles
My name is Rylee and I have been babysitting all ages of children since I was about 12 years old. I am majoring in architecture at Iowa State. I love children and babies because they have the most unique perspectives on life. I like fostering a safe place for kids to develop and learn. I have babysat babies from newborn to toddler age, for full day and night periods. I regularly watch two children at once (a toddler and seven year old) and have experience watching up to six elementary-aged kids at once. I have led my own summer art class for elementary-aged students and taught classes at my local art center. I also have experience tutoring third and fourth graders. I am open to tutoring and helping with homework if the kids need it. I was a lifeguard at a country club for two years. I was trained and certified in first aid and CPR, but I did not renew the certification. I am good at learning schedules and can adapt to any style of the care the parents wish. I think babysitting is one of the most rewarding jobs because even when the kids are having a bad day, you get to be a support for them. I think it is important to teach children emotional intelligence and help them navigate big feelings. In my experience, babysitting is not always easy, but always gratifying.

With 5 years of experience with working in a daycare, my love for working with kids and helping them grow has they emerge through adolescence has only continued to grow. In addition, last summer I was a full time nanny! I have done everything and in between! I started babysitting when I was 14, and still do it as a 19 year old. I have worked with all ages at the daycare, but particularly enjoy the toddler age. Feel free to contact me for interviews or for references!

Hi! My name is Kamryn, and I have been babysitting for over 5 years. During that time, I’ve cared for children of all ages, from infants to preteens, and I truly enjoy being part of their growth and daily adventures.

Whether I’m helping with homework, preparing meals, reading bedtime stories, or organizing creative activities like arts and crafts, I make it my mission to create a positive and nurturing environment. I’m also comfortable managing routines, handling light household tasks, and ensuring a smooth evening or day for both children and parents. Families can count on me to be responsible, dependable, and communicative. I take pride in being someone parents trust and kids enjoy spending time with. Babysitting isn’t just a job for me, it’s something I genuinely love doing.
