Layne M., Child Care in Slater, IA 50244 with 12 years of paid experience

I am a full time nanny to 1 and mother to a 6 yr old girl in my home. We have lots of fun playing, crafting, going to the park and on walks. We practice social distancing and take Covid very seriously. I am also expecting another girl in April 2021. I am a very caring, compassionate, and responsible person who loves children and animals! I have plenty of references and experience with both!

I have raise my family and I am now a grandma to three children 7, 11 and 13. my husband and I moved here to be closer to them. I love babies and taking care of them. If you want your baby to be snuggled and we’ll cared for - I am your person. My husband and I have been foster parents for a baby/toddler with special needs. (Failure to thrive). I have coached my daughter in softball all through her elementary days. I was also a Girl Scout leader. For the last 13 years I have coached in a high school environment which would mean that I have had all my background checks and fingerprints on file with the police department. My specialty is new born - 18 months

Spending time with children is one of my passions. I love being able to observe children learn and grow. I want to help inspire children to be life long learners. I know that your child is the most important person in your life and I take the position seriously, but know how to have fun. I have been employed as a babysitter, nanny, daycare provider, a school associate and owned my own daycare and afterschool program. I have a degree in social work as well. I worked at Children and Families of Iowa as in home provider as well.

Lilly T., Child Care in Slater, IA 50244 with 3 years of paid experience

Hello, my name is Lilly. I am 21 years old and I live in Ames with my fiance. I am currently looking for weekend babysitting jobs to help save money and save for a wedding in 2027. I am CPR certified and first aid certified. My goal is to give your kid(s) fun and entertainment while also keeping them safe and happy. I love doing arts and crafts and also playing sports. When it’s nice out I love to go on walks and bike rides but I also love to shoot hoops or play catch. As I’m helping you by watching the kids I can also help you with some household chores during downtime and I can also help with errands and driving kids to sports. If you only need a night out don’t worry I got you. If you need to be out later then the time you said, don’t worry I got you covered. I can cook basic meals with a side of veggies. I even know secret baking tips to hide veggies but still taste good. I know some fun spots that the kids will love to play at. If you give me a chance your kids will never say “ I’m bored”.

Kaley S., Child Care in Slater, IA 50244 with 8 years of paid experience

Why do you love being a sitter? I absolutely love working with kids because they bring me so much joy! I love getting to know each child’s personality, creating fun and creative activities, making them laugh, and being someone they feel safe and comfortable with. I love knowing that I can make a positive impact on a child’s life, and be their light. I’m energetic, patient, caring, creative, and responsible. I’m studying Human Development and Family Studies at Iowa State because I hope to become a pediatric occupational therapist, working with kids is truly something I’m passionate about! * What experience do you have? I have 8 years of babysitting experience from all ages and 4 years of nannying experience with 4 siblings and a dog. I also worked as a preschool teacher, where I cared for young children, supported their development, planned activities, and created a safe and nurturing environment. For the past 3 years, I have worked at the YMCA in after-school care and summer camp, including serving as a lead summer camp counselor. I supervised big groups of children, planned activities, helped with daily routines, and created a fun, positive environment. I also have experience preparing meals, giving rides, cleaning, caring for pets, and managing multiple children at once. * What skills and training do you have? I’m a sophomore at Iowa State studying Human Development and Family Studies with the goal of becoming a pediatric OT. I have CPR and First Aid training, have completed several childcare trainings, and have been background-checked through my YMCA experience. I’m comfortable caring for children of different ages and personalities, planning activities, preparing food, helping with routines, driving children when needed, and maintaining a clean and safe environment. I’m very flexible and would love to help babysit!

Bianca B., Child Care in Slater, IA 50244 with 4 years of paid experience

For the past four years, I've been passionate about bringing joy and providing attentive care to children. My experiences working as a daycare assistant teacher have inspired me to positively impact and support families by offering dependable childcare services for a more one-on-one experience with children. I'm at ease looking after as many as three children of any age group, ranging from babies to pre-teens. I'm patient and composed, and I love involving kids in all sorts of activities and experiences. I currently attend college for HDFS. Additionally, I'm certified in both CPR and First Aid. I consistently adhere to the parents' guidelines when it comes to enforcing household rules. I keep parents informed at pickup time, or give frequent updates through text or phone calls, and honor your chosen method of communication. I have my own transportation, and I'm excited about the chance to foster a stimulating and secure environment for your children.
