Hello, my name is Brendan, and I am excited about the opportunity to be a babysitter or nanny for your family. For the past three summers, I have had the privilege of working with children at a local daycare, and it has been an incredibly rewarding experience. I genuinely value the importance of providing children in our community with safe, reliable, and engaging care, and I take pride in being able to contribute to that with CPR and First Aid Certified care. As a college student studying Secondary Education at Iowa State University, I view this position as a meaningful way to continue growing my skills while preparing for my future career as a teacher. I would love the chance to get to know your family and support your children’s growth and well-being. I look forward to connecting with you soon!

Hi! My name is Erin, and I’m a student at Iowa State in Ames, majoring in Interior Design. Alongside my studies, I’ve always had a passion for working with kids. In high school, I regularly babysat a group of three to seven children after school once a week, and I also provided summer care for many of the same families. Most of my experience is with children ages 4–9, though I have also cared for toddlers (18 months+) in my church nursery. In addition, I’ve spent time helping in my mom’s special education classroom, which has given me experience working with children who have special needs. I bring patience, creativity, and responsibility to every babysitting job, and I truly love creating a fun and safe environment for kids.

Hi! My name is Savannah, I’m 18 and I grew up in a small town outside of Jefferson, IA. I have two younger siblings and I graduated class of 2025. I’ve worked in 3 different caregiver settings - my first one being in a daycare! I worked from 7:15a-12:40pm for almost a year, I was also getting school credits for it because the daycare was next to my school. I worked mainly in the toddler room - but also have experience with school age to newborn! I am also cpr certified! I worked in two assisted living facilities as well and gained lots of wisdom from my residents, but also got to connect with them and really got to know them!
