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.

I love being with kids! I am patient and love to play games and have a good laugh. I grew up being a ballerina which taught me a lot of leadership. I teach ballet with young kids and adults! It is my passion so I love the experience and being social. I have more experience in babysitting with newborns and toddlers. I am the oldest sibling so I have always grown up being with younger ones with my family. I have a car and am able to drive to any activities or go on errands.

Hi! I am a first-year at the University of Iowa, and have 5 years of professional child care experience. Over the summers I work at a Spanish summer academy and have specialized training for kids with developmental disorders. I speak 8 languages and love sharing my culture with others. Working with children is one of the most rewarding things I've ever done and I am excited to continue doing it here in Iowa City. Whether your kiddos just need a friend for the night, help with laundry, housekeeping, or cooking, I am here for both the children and the parents. I am patient, energetic, thoughtful, and creative, especially when it comes to kids. I'm CPR and first aid certified, so please don't worry if anything comes up as I am a very fast and clear communicator, too. Let me know if you would like any references or when we can set up a call to meet!
