Lynnsey L.
- 6 years paid experience
- 15 miles
I’m 22 years old and have been working in childcare since I was 16. Before that, I used to babysit my siblings and the younger children of some close family friends. I’ve worked with children of all ages, but I’m currently a lead teacher for the 2-year-old room at my center. I’m CPR and first aid certified, have completed the mandatory reporter training, and universal precautions training. I can assist with potty training, diaper changes, sleep strategies, and meal preparation. I enjoy planning and preparing age-appropriate crafts and activities to keep the children engaged when the weather permits us from going outside and burn off energy. From a young age, I’ve always wanted to work with young children and contribute to their learning and development.

I raised my son and 2 daughters. I’m semi retired and have 7 grandchildren and a great granddaughter. My two grandsons are here, in West Des Moines. I spent the last 9 yrs watching them, while their parents worked. Before that I worked in social work and helped with my grandson and 2 granddaughters in TX for 9 yrs. I love staying active with them, hiking and playgrounds. I have a BA degree from William Penn Univ., Oskaloosa, IA.

Hi! I’m a caring, responsible, and patient babysitter who genuinely enjoys spending time with children and helping them feel safe, happy, and comfortable. I love babysitting because I enjoy getting to know each child’s personality, keeping them entertained, and creating fun activities while also maintaining a safe environment. I have professional childcare experience from working at a daycare where I cared for children, supervised activities, helped with daily routines, and communicated with parents and staff. I helped kids go to the potty, put them to naps and sanitized spaces and prepared and gave out snacks.
