Hi there! My name is Nicki, and I'm 25 years old. I graduated IU in 2019 with a bachelor's in Elementary Education and I have experience in Early Childhood education/care. At an Early Learning Center, I would be in charge of 10+ toddlers, so I am used to watching over multiple children. I have experience in changing diapers, feeding toddlers and infants, CPR/First Aid, nap times / safe sleep, and entertaining/educating children. I also grew up with animals, so I am comfortable around pets of any kind. I specifically have experience with cats and dogs. However, I did want to mention that I will only be able to help out until the end of December, as my healthcare classes will be starting back up. It is still about 5 months away, but I wanted to let you know as soon as possible!

I am a senior (age 21) at Indiana University - Bloomington, studying marketing and business analytics at the Kelley School of Business. My love for helping families and caring for children began at a young age. When I was 13, I started caring for my younger cousins while they were infants, which sparked my passion for childcare. Throughout high school and college, I nannied for the same family for four years. During that time, I had the privilege of watching one of their daughters grow from a toddler into an elementary school student, which was an incredibly rewarding experience. I also spent a summer working as a full-time Infant & Toddler Assistant Teacher at Primrose School in Plymouth, MN, while home from college. This experience allowed me to further develop my childcare skills, work with children at different developmental stages, and build meaningful relationships with families. Through Primrose, I connected with several wonderful families whom I continue to babysit for whenever I am home from college. Overall, I genuinely enjoy building lasting relationships with children and their families, and I find it incredibly rewarding to play a role in a child's growth and development.
