I'm a pre-nursing student currently working part time as a registered behavioral technician with kids who have autism. My 8 years of babysitting experience has provided me a plethora of skills (meal prep, diaper changes, calming strategies) and being CPR + first aid certified has only enriched my ability to provide quality care to youth. I have extensive experience with children of all ages including those with special needs. I have my own car, I'm patient, creative, and enjoy building connections with kids, and I'm comfortable with all personalities and age groups. Feel free to contact me for references or to set up a call!

Hello! My name is Chatian Banks. I am from Des Moines, IA. I recently graduated from Grambling State University. I have a B.A. in Psychology with a double minor in Child Development and Sociology My passion for learning children's development and helping them solve the world around them resulted in my future career goal to be a Child Psychologist. I find joy in being around children. Their laughter softens the challenges life throws at me when I'm struggling. Children's personalities and curiosity keep me intrigued in how children learn, behave, and grow. I have been babysitting children for 12 years. I worked as an Assistant Teacher at Cadence Preschool Academy teaching children ranging from infants to 5 years old. My double major in Psychology and Sociology has given me the knowledge to focus on human interactions and human emotions which I emphasize when aiding children with their language, communication skills and emotions.

I've continued to babysit when need be for neighbors, friends, family, and other children. I have been babysitting for at least 10 years, and have nannied for 3. lI've watched children of all ages, and feel extremely comfortable with them all. I've recently been watching a 3 year old and an infant, or an 8 and 10 year old. I've done many things with the children, making any meals, taking them to the pool, walks, the park, naps and bedtimes. I'm very artsy and enjoy doing crafts. I also love the outdoors, and would rather be outside then inside. I have no issues with any pets. I'm CPR certified, and can handle any situation comfortably.
