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.

Hello! Need a break? A date night? Errands? Light housekeeping? I can lend a hand. I’m a mom of 4 sons (3 are adults and 1 teen) and also have a granddaughter. So I am well explained with children. I’m also a part time RN with 26 years of nursing experience. I’m CPR certified. I have experience with newborns and worked in labor and delivery for 18 + years. I also worked in pediatrics. I’m looking for flexible hours to help with babysitting, pet sitting, caregiving, house sitting and more. My availability varies. I could help out on occasional Tuesdays/Thursdays, some weekends and evenings.

Hi there! My name is Katlyn and I’ve been living in the Iowa city area for about 6 years now. I have over 14 years of experience as I’ve been babysitting officially since I was 12 years old after taking a class through a local Boys and Girls Club and have experience with children as young as newborns all the way into their preteens. I grew up a military brat with 6 siblings, 4 of them being younger than me so I am very experienced taking care of and entertaining little ones! Throughout high school I regularly babysat for a family of 4 boys ages 2 months-7 years old and spent a summer with them as well before starting a new job at a nursing home. I would love to meet with you and answer any questions you may have!

Fatuma M.

Hello, my name is Fatuma. I love being a sitter because it gives me the chance to make a positive impact in a child's life while offering parents some much-needed peace of mind. It's rewarding to watch kids learn, grow, and have fun in a safe and nurturing environment. I enjoy the creativity involved in planning activities, whether it’s playing games, reading stories, or helping with homework. There's something special about building trust with both the kids and parents, knowing I can make their day a little easier and more enjoyable. I have 4 years of babysitting experience working with children of various ages, from infants to school-age kids. Over the years, I’ve gained skills in everything from creating fun and educational activities to handling bedtime routines, preparing snacks, and providing gentle discipline when necessary.
