Aubreann P.
- 7 years paid experience
- 13 miles

Hi! My name is Aubreann Pfaff, and I’m a nurturing and dependable caregiver with a true passion for working with children of all ages. I’m 22 years old and recently graduated from Heartland Community College with a degree in Arts. I’m currently on the path toward a nursing career—driven by my love for caring for others. As the second oldest of seven kids, I grew up in a busy household where helping with childcare came naturally. I bring that same energy, patience, and attentiveness into every home I work in. I also love to cook and enjoy preparing meals and snacks! I’m comfortable with pets of all breeds and sizes, have a reliable car with a clean driving record, and am happy to help with school drop-offs and pick-ups, errands, and light housekeeping. My goal is to create a safe, fun, and supportive environment for the children I care for while making life a little easier for busy parents. I’d love the opportunity to support your family with warmth, responsibility, and a smile!

I'm a registered nurse with extensive experience in pediatrics and babysitting. Currently my friend's 5&1/2yr old daughter says I'm her "Bestie". She and I talk unicorns and mermaids. I love watching children grow and thrive. I believe there is a time and place for screen time but it needs to be limited, age appropriate and supervised. It is my belief that children need to be encouraged to play, imagine, read and generally learn good face to face communication skills.

Hello, I am an experienced babysitter with a genuine passion for caring for children. My journey in childcare began early, as I assisted in raising my younger siblings, which instilled in me a strong sense of responsibility. In addition to childcare, I am adept at managing household tasks, ensuring a clean and organized environment. I create a safe and engaging space that combines fun and educational activities to provide children with both entertainment and learning opportunities. I am also reliable and have a car, which allows me to handle school pickups and drop-offs as needed. My schedule is flexible, as I am working from home as a part-time realtor, which enables me to accommodate various needs. I am pleased to provide references from satisfied parents.

I have raised two children of my own and will soon be adopting my 12-year-old grandson. I spent years taking in children of friends and neighbors to babysit while my own children were in school. Now that my grandchildren are grown, I am looking to fill some of my free time caring for other children. I recently completed a six-week parenting program in preparation to adopt my grandson. Caring for children is the most important job in the world and I am always educating myself on the changes in parenting for a safe and healthy child.
