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.

Hey there! I'm here to introduce myself as your potential nanny, and let me tell you why I'm the perfect fit for your family. At 23, with a heart bursting with love and a spirit as playful as a puppy's, I'm excited to embark on this journey with you. From the tender age of 16, I've been immersed in the wonderful chaos of childcare, living with my five adorable nieces and guiding them through the magical journey of growing up. From changing diapers to bedtime stories, I've been there every step of the way, learning and growing alongside them. Safety is my top priority, and with my CPR certificate securely in hand, you can rest easy knowing your little ones are in good hands. Before making my way to Iowa, I had the pleasure of living and working in sunny Los Angeles, where I wore many hats, including that of a lifeguard and dental assistant. As a lifeguard, I honed my skills in vigilance and quick thinking, while my time as a dental assistant taught me the importance of attention to detail and maintaining a clean, hygienic environment. These experiences have equipped me with a diverse set of skills that I'm excited to bring to my role as your nanny. Currently, I'm putting my creativity to work at a freelance company, crafting captivating advertisements that catch the eye and capture the imagination. But my true passion lies in caring for children and helping them discover the world around them. Being Mexican, I'm fluent in both English and Spanish, and I'd love to share the beauty of my culture and language with your children, only if that’s something that you would like. Whether we're singing songs in Spanish or whipping up some delicious Mexican cuisine together, I'm dedicated to creating a multicultural environment where your children can thrive. And speaking of furry friends, I'm a huge animal lover myself—I have a puppy of my own! So if you have pets, rest assured they'll be showered with love and attention too. But perhaps what sets me apart the most is simply who I am—a kind, compassionate soul with a heart as big as the sky. I believe in treating others with kindness and respect, and I'm committed to creating a warm, nurturing environment where your children can flourish. So what do you say? Ready to embark on this incredible journey together? I sure hope so—I can't wait to meet you and your little ones!

Thank you for taking the time to read a little about me! I am 27 years old, and I graduated from Waukee High School in 2017. Since then I have worked in daycares, I did hair for a little bit, but now I work in the financial industry. I have worked in daycares since I was 16 years old, so roughly 7 years! I have worked with children of all ages over the years, from 6 weeks up to school age! I am open to answering any questions you may have and am willing to discuss pay!

Hi families! I love babysitting because it allows me to help children build confidence, learn new skills, and thrive in a fun, encouraging environment. With over two years of daycare childcare experience as well as specialized training as a current Registered Behavior Technician (RBT), I bring a unique blend of safety, structure, and positive energy to your home. My experience and skills have a strong background working with neurodivergent children, including those with Autism and ADHD. My RBT experience means I excel at understanding diverse learning styles, managing big emotions calmly, and keeping daily routines stress-free. Whether your child needs help staying on track with homework, navigating transitions, or just loves creative play, I use patient, positive-reinforcement techniques to keep them engaged and happy. I have obtained many advanced safety and training certifications. Your child's well-being is my absolute top priority. I am fully certified in infant, child, and adult CPR/First Aid. I also hold advanced certifications in crisis safety care and health precautions. I am proactive, reliable, and dedicated to creating a secure environment where your kids can feel safe and supported.

Hi! I’m Rachel, and I genuinely love helping children learn, grow, and have fun in a safe, positive environment. I have professional experience working in childcare with infants through school-age children, so I’m comfortable caring for multiple children, managing routines, preparing meals and snacks, assisting with homework, planning engaging activities, and handling bedtime routines. I’m dependable, patient, and calm under pressure, and I believe in creating a caring environment where kids feel safe and supported. I understand how important it is for parents to have someone they can trust, and I treat every child with the same kindness, respect, and attention I would want for my own family. Whether you’re looking for an occasional sitter or a long-term nanny, I’d love the opportunity to support your family! I’m also open to full-time nanny opportunities and would love to build a long-term relationship with a family while providing reliable, consistent care.

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.
