I am a dedicated and compassionate caregiver with experience teaching and working closely with children and youth. At Bethel United Methodist Church in Moline, Illinois, I have been leading Bible study sessions and creating engaging, age-appropriate lessons that help children learn in a fun and meaningful way. This experience has strengthened my ability to connect with kids, encourage curiosity, and adapt lessons to different learning styles. Beyond teaching, I have developed strong skills in patience, responsibility, and communication—qualities that naturally carry over into childcare. I understand the importance of creating a safe, nurturing, and structured environment where children can thrive. I also enjoy incorporating creative activities, crafts, and stories to keep children engaged and happy. Families can trust me to be dependable, caring, and attentive to their children’s needs. I am passionate about supporting children’s growth and creating positive experiences that help them feel valued and cared for.

I’m a fun, kind, and energetic caregiver with 7 years of childcare experience and 2 years working in a hospital setting. I’m CPR and BLS certified, which means safety is always a priority. I love planning creative and engaging activities that help kids learn, grow, and stay active. Families describe me as dependable, nurturing, and easy to communicate with — and I strive to create a positive, supportive environment for both children and parents.

I'm a parent myself (a toddler and a pre-schooler), so most of my experience is caring for them. I recently began working in before and after school child care in Iowa (where I got all my necessary certificates to work with children), but the pay and hours are inconsistent. I like being a child care provider because I find it easy and fulfilling. Children are just smaller people who are learning about and experience life and the world for the first time, so if you slow down and interact with them on their level and from their perspective they're pretty easy to get along with. My goal in pursuing jobs like this is to find more financial stability, but still have time to be present for my children's childhoods.

I grew up in a family of 5 with 25(!) cousins so I have always had children and babies in my life. I babysat my way through high school and college for 3 different families ranging in age from newborn-10 years old. Coming from a very loving and creative family I have concluded that when I am caring for a child the most important thing to me is creating a safe, loving, open but structured and positive environment for them.

I was currently working as the lead teacher in the 3-4 yr old room at a daycare. I would also work in the 2yr. Old room, infant room and the school age room on occasions. I love working with children. My favorite thing about working with kids is the trust and relationship you build with them. There's nothing better than knowing you are making a difference in a child's life. I am up to date on all my childcare trainings and I also have up to date. first aid and CPR certificate. I have also worked with disabled children and children who have behavioral issues.
