I’ve spent the last two years immersed in childcare, and I can honestly say it’s one of my greatest passions. Growing up as the older sister of five, I’ve always had a natural inclination to care for others. From a young age, I took on the responsibility of looking after my siblings, which laid the foundation for my love of working with children. Every day in my childcare role feels like an adventure. I thrive on the energy and curiosity that children bring into the world. Whether it’s playing games, reading stories, or simply being there to listen, I find immense joy in nurturing their development. It’s incredibly rewarding to watch them grow, learn, and discover new things. I believe that every child is unique, and I strive to create a supportive environment where they can express themselves freely. My experience with my siblings has taught me patience and empathy, qualities that I carry into my work every day. I truly love what I do, and I can’t imagine my life without the laughter and joy that working with children brings me.

Hi! I’m Morgan. I’m 22 years old and I’m looking to be a babysitter. I have babysat kids before and have been told I’m very good with kids. My patience runs high so maybe that’s it. I love to play volleyball, sing, read books. My favorite singer is P!nk. I love pets (my favorite animal is a monkey) and I have 2 cats. I have 6 years of paid babysitting experience. I also have CPR certification and know basic first aid. I am willing to do light house keeping and simple meals (I’m not much of a cook). I have my own car so if there are activities, sports, or just a trip to the park, I can do that. My availability is very flexible right now as I am currently looking for a job. I hope to hear from you soon!

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!

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. I look forward to helping families in the Cedar Rapids area, but I’m willing to travel to smaller, surroundings towns as well. Please feel free to reach out if I can help you out!
