Hi, my name is Bianca and I have several years of experience caring for children. I’m currently working full-time as a nanny in Chicago, where I handle daily routines such as preparing lunch, helping the children get dressed, taking them to school, supporting them through potty training, and managing emotional situations with patience and empathy. I consider myself a responsible, organized, loving, and highly committed person. I’m looking to join a new family in Phoenix starting in August, for a part-time position.

Hi! I’m an experienced, bilingual babysitter based in Dubuque. I’m originally from the U.S. but have been living abroad since 2019, spending time in Spain and Portugal. I speak both English and Spanish fluently and come from a large, close-knit family so I’ve always been surrounded by kids! With 9+ years of childcare experience, I’ve worked with children from infants to teens. I’ve been a trusted babysitter, a live-in au pair in Spain, and a part-time nanny throughout college. I’ve also tutored and taught English as a second language while abroad. I completed three early childhood education courses in high school. I’m social, hands-on, and love being active. That can be, reading stories, playing outside, helping with homework, or getting creative with crafts. I truly enjoy building meaningful connections with kids and families. As a bilingual caregiver, I’m happy to offer Spanish-speaking childcare as well. I’m available for summer babysitting (with the possibility to extend) and would love to be part of a caring, family-oriented household. Feel free to reach out—I’d be happy to chat and learn more about what you’re looking for! I can give references if needed!! :)

Hi my name is Alberto Moreno I am a wrestler and freshman at the University of Dubuque. In my family of 11 with me being the 6th oldest having to take care of 5 younger siblings I have learned how to not only be patient with children but help them work things out on their own to build both confidence as-well as independence from a young age. Being able to watch someone grow as a person has always been something that brings me a lot of joy which makes me a very social person. I have no formal training but am very eager to learn and excel in all aspects, I can cook to the mastery of a college student, I am able to drive and am very sociable so i connect with a younger audience very well.

Hello! I am a 22-year-old graduate from the University of Iowa, currently working in Dubuque. I have a strong background in childcare, having grown up in a daycare environment owned by my mother. This experience provided me with valuable exposure to caring for and entertaining children of various ages, equipping me with the skills to attend to their needs and ensure their well-being. During my time at Iowa, I babysat for three families, gaining hands-on experience with children of different ages. For one family, I cared for three kids aged 5, 3, and 1. For another family, I looked after two children aged 6 and 2. In the third family, I babysat three kids aged 7, 4, and 1. This experience further honed my ability to manage multiple children and cater to their individual needs. Although I don't hold current certifications in CPR or First Aid, I have six years of lifeguarding experience, during which I underwent comprehensive training and earned certifications. This demonstrates my commitment to safety and emergency response. My expertise in lifeguarding is transferrable, allowing me to effectively handle critical situations and prioritize the well-being of those under my care. Creating a secure and enjoyable environment for children is my passion. My upbringing around kids and extensive lifeguarding background have provided me with the necessary skills and knowledge to offer exceptional care. If you have any further inquiries or would like to learn more about my experiences, please feel free to ask!
