Find experienced child care providers in Mitchellville, IA

I have been watching children in some fashion since I was 11 years old (26 years). I have been a nanny for a family in the past and it was a great experience. I have watched children from infancy into their teens and have no issues with watching multiple children at the same time. I am very organized and like to keep children occupied with activities with minimal screen time. I have two nieces and a nephew (all siblings) that I have watch since birth and still watch frequently. Their ages vary from 10 months to 7 years old. When I am watching them, I have one child home all day, one child home half days, and the eldest has school all day. This requires being able to keep the day organized and a good routine going.

Running around and having a huge amount of energy is what I expect and love to have fun!

Hi! I'm Courtney! Caring for children has always been a passion of mine, and I love creating environments where they feel safe, loved, confident, and excited to learn. One of the things I enjoy most about being a nanny is building meaningful relationships with both children and their families. I believe every child deserves someone who is patient, dependable, and genuinely invested in helping them grow. Professionally, I have worked as a special education teacher for two years before becoming a Lead Montessori Teacher for children ages 3–6. I also served as the Child Care Director and On-Site Supervisor of a licensed early childhood program. These experiences have given me a strong understanding of child development, positive behavior support, and creating engaging, developmentally appropriate experiences tailored to each child's individual needs. Before my teaching career, I nannied for the same family for three consecutive summers while attending college and babysat for multiple families throughout high school. Working in both classroom and home settings has taught me how important it is to partner with families and provide consistent, individualized care. I hold an Iowa teaching license and have completed Montessori teacher training. My experience includes working with children of varying ages, abilities, and developmental needs, including children who require additional learning or behavioral support. One of my favorite parts of working with children is creating meaningful experiences together. Whether we're reading books, baking, doing arts and crafts, exploring nature, visiting the library, zoo, or science center, enjoying pool days, or simply turning everyday routines into learning opportunities, I love following children's interests and encouraging curiosity, creativity, and independence. I understand that inviting someone into your home and trusting them with your children is a big decision. My goal is to be more than a caregiver—I strive to become a trusted, reliable part of your family's support system while creating a positive, fun, and nurturing environment where your children can thrive.
