I have raise my family and I am now a grandma to three children 7, 11 and 13. my husband and I moved here to be closer to them. I love babies and taking care of them. If you want your baby to be snuggled and we’ll cared for - I am your person. My husband and I have been foster parents for a baby/toddler with special needs. (Failure to thrive). I have coached my daughter in softball all through her elementary days. I was also a Girl Scout leader. For the last 13 years I have coached in a high school environment which would mean that I have had all my background checks and fingerprints on file with the police department.

Hi! My name is Savannah, I’m 18 and I grew up in a small town outside of Jefferson, IA. I have two younger siblings and I graduated class of 2025. I’ve worked in 3 different caregiver settings - my first one being in a daycare! I worked from 7:15a-12:40pm for almost a year, I was also getting school credits for it because the daycare was next to my school. I worked mainly in the toddler room - but also have experience with school age to newborn! I am also cpr certified! I worked in two assisted living facilities as well and gained lots of wisdom from my residents, but also got to connect with them and really got to know them!

Hi families! I am Rebekah. I am from Iowa. I am moving to Florida the beginning of October. I am looking for a start date around the middle of October. I am moving to Florida for a new experience. I just graduated The University of Northern Iowa with a bachelors in Human services. I am also CRP/First Aid certified. I have also been starting to take classes on a website called Alison. This is a website that I can learn more about children and the best way to help them thrive and grow. As for my experience. I have 10 years of babysitting experience and three years professional nannying. The family I work for now have two kids. They were 4 and 8 months when I started. They will be 6 and 2. 5 when I move. I have worked for this family for almost 2 years. Before that I worked for a family with one child. She was 5 months when I started and 1. 5 years when they moved away. I look forward to hearing from you!

I love being a sitter because caring for children feels meaningful to me, and I truly enjoy creating a calm, nurturing environment where kids feel safe, understood, and supported. I have hands-on experience from working as a summer camp counselor, where I supervised groups of children, balanced different ages and needs, and kept them engaged through daily activities. I’m comfortable caring for infants, toddlers, and school-aged kids, and I’ve also helped families with routines, transportation, and general in-home support. I bring patience, warmth, and strong communication to every role, along with skills in multitasking, organizing schedules, and maintaining a safe environment. I’m attentive, gentle under pressure, reliable with transitions, and always focused on helping both children and parents feel supported.

I love being a sitter because I truly enjoy watching children grow, learn, and experience life. Every child is unique, and I find joy in being part of their development and helping them feel safe and supported. I’ve worked at a daycare for six years, caring for children of various ages and abilities. My experience includes creating fun, safe environments, helping with routines, and supporting children’s emotional and social needs. I am going into special education, so I have training in working with diverse learners and supporting children with special needs. I’ve learned how to be patient, observant, and nurturing, and I know how to manage behavior in a positive and respectful way. I am a very out going and happy person. My number one priority is to keep the children happy and safe.
