Sittercity helps Silvis families find the best child care providers

Hi, I’m Elizabeth, I’m an energetic, smart, organized, and outgoing person with a love and passion for childcare. A little family background information on me is I’m the middle child of 9 siblings of all ages and mental abilities. Since I was young I’ve gained experience in assisting children and siblings with ADHD, FAS, and other mental disabilities. I have experience with multiple ages ranging from newborn to middle school; toddler and elementary being my strongest age range of experience. I am also comfortable watching multiple children at a time while completing laundry, cooking, and other household chores. I enjoy reading and exploring the mind creatively through art and writing, playing outdoors whenever possible is always a must, also teaching good people skills and manors is something I see as important. I am CPR certified, I have also completed multiple DCFS certifications. I have years of experience with child care with newborns to teens! If you have any questions please feel free to ask!

Hey! My name is Elizabeth and I love babysitting kids. I’m young, flexible, and dependable. I have my own car so driving your kids around is no problem for me.

I currently care for elders in an assisted living and I also am in school to be an Occupational therapist so I’m looking for a part time childcare job because I love kids. I used to babysit while in high school and absolutely loved it and the kids always looked forward to seeing me too. Along with that, I helped a neighbor who ran a daycare down the road from where I lived as a teenager and helped care for children of all ages. More recently, I watch some of my friends kids from time to time and really enjoy it so I figured I would branch out and help parents who need part-time help watching their children.

Hi! I’m a CPR and First Aid certified college student with a passion for childcare and a heart for helping families thrive. I currently work as a Patient Care Technician, which has equipped me with a strong foundation in safety, responsibility, and compassionate care. I specialize in working with babies and toddlers, but I’ve had the joy of caring for children of all ages. While I’ve only recently begun babysitting professionally, I bring years of hands-on experience from caring for my younger siblings and neighborhood kids—a role I’ve loved and grown in since I was young. Whether it’s helping with homework, running errands, driving kids to and from activities, or caring for pets, I’m happy to pitch in wherever needed. I aim to be a positive, dependable presence in your child’s life and a helping hand to your family.

I am currently a part-time college student in the process of getting my CDA(Child, Development, Associates). I have between 4-5 years of professional childcare experience. I started out babysitting when I was around 12 and got my first daycare job at 20. I've always loved interacting with and helping children grow. I have the most experience with caring for kids 2-12 years old. The best part of getting to work with kids is being a positive impact on their growth and development. I love working with families to help the early years of development the best they can be. I love using play and natural experiences to help grow a child's world. I don't mind getting a little messy for the sake of growth, fun, and creativity. I have done many trainings and certifications through the Iowa DHS training program. Including but not limited to Child & Adult First Aid/CPR. I also have an abundance of experience working with kids transitioning into potty training. I am also able to provide good structure for early learning. I have had amazing success with helping develop early writers and early readers. My cooking skills are somewhat limited but I can prepare simple meals and healthy snacks. Due to doing college online my schedule can be pretty flexible. My greatest availability would be Mon-Fri, 12pm-6:30pm. Availability can be more flexible if you are okay with me doing some course work throughout the day and having telehealth appointments once or twice a week. Of course your child's safety and well-being are always my top priority. Overnight and weekend availability is negotiable.
