I love being a sitter because I value providing high-level, intentional care that supports both the child’s development and the family’s lifestyle. I take pride in creating a calm, structured, and nurturing environment where children feel secure, confident, and engaged. For me, being a nanny is not just childcare—it’s about becoming a trusted professional who contributes positively to a family’s daily flow and peace of mind. I have extensive professional experience working with children in both private childcare and structured behavioral settings. I’ve supported children of varying ages and needs, partnering closely with families to maintain routines, encourage emotional regulation, and foster healthy development. My background includes consistency, discretion, and adaptability—qualities that are especially important when supporting busy households. I bring a strong skill set in child development support, behavior management, emotional regulation, and routine-based care. With my training as a Registered Behavioral Technician, I am highly skilled in positive reinforcement, observation, and individualized support strategies. I am organized, detail-oriented, and proactive, with the ability to anticipate family needs, multitask efficiently, and maintain a polished, professional standard at all times.

My full name is Jordyn but I typically go by my nickname, Jordy. I grew up being the oldest in a house with 6+ kids! I have been babysitting since I was 13 years old. I love kids and I love pets, I even have a couple kitties of my own. I always love doing crafts and fun things with the kiddos (keeping kids entertained is my specialty lol) but I will never turn down a good lazy day. I’m a pretty patient person and tantrums are no match for me! I also tend to get pretty board when there’s nothing to do, so when the kiddos are napping, expect the dishes to be done haha! I currently work part time at Kippy’s Place in Elkhart Iowa and I strictly work nights in the late week. Other than that, I’m pretty much available all the time!
