I have been babysitting for over 20 years and have watched children ages 3 weeks to 12 years old. I have worked in three different day cares, all in the infant room. I have also babysat for over 250 families. I am certified in CPR, First Aid, and AED, renewed February 2022. I have used this on one occasion to save a life. I have been vaccinated for covid in March and April 2021, and received a covid booster in November 2021. Please rest assured I will get a second covid booster as soon as available! I have also had a flu shot in September 2021, and a tdap in February 2022. I have come to believe that the core of child care is truly loving kids and helping them become the best versions of themselves. I learn something new from each child I have the privilege of babysitting, and most of all, I love getting the opportunity to nurture kids when they are young! I'm also actively involved in the Second City Acting program. I absolutely love engaging children in creative role-play! Finally, I also teach in the Northwestern Program for Gifted Students. I love making learning fun, and it is my dream to open an empowerment institute for kids one day. Please note I do not have after school availability at this time.

Hi! I'm Hadyn, I'm 18 years old and I recently just got my esthetician license and got certified in lash extensions! I moved to Des Moines last year to get my license, and after I graduated I decided to move back home and buy an apartment. I love being closer to my family and am hoping to continue my education with esthetics here! Eventually I hope to find a forever job using my license, but for right now I'm super excited to find a fun family to be apart of and continue my lash journey! I babysat a little bit in high school, so I knew it was something I definitely wanted to do! I love hanging out with the kids and am totally down for any activities! I'm available for any jobs whether it's pick-ups, after school, or date night! Just shoot me a message, and if you have any questions just ask!!

I began babysitting for family friends when I was around 15 or 16 years old. During this time, I cared for children of various ages, including a child with special needs who was particularly energetic. This experience taught me patience and adaptability, as well as how to create a supportive and engaging environment for children. Later, I worked at a startup daycare where I cared for children aged 4-5 years old. My responsibilities included: • Preparing healthy snacks • Managing nap times • Organizing playtime and educational activities • Reading stories and engaging in fun activities • Building trust and connections with the children to help them feel comfortable and secure while their parents were away
