Lauryn W., Nanny in Council Bluffs, IA 51503 with 6 years of paid experience

Hey! I'm Lauryn, though I go by Lali (pronounced lolly, like a lollypop:). I absolutely love kids! I'm currently majoring in social work, because I'm really passionate about children growing up in a positive environment, something I would love to help provide for your kids. I'm good at cooking, cleaning, instructing, driving and following instruction. I love to have fun! I enjoy taking kids to the park, doing crafts, eating ice cream and playing imaginary, board and card games. While entertainment is a specialty of mine, I also understand that keeping on schedule is important - dinnertime means dinnertime, not anything else. I look forward to working with you!

Abbigail P., Nanny in Council Bluffs, IA 51503 with 9 years of paid experience

Hi, I’m Abby! I have 9 years of nanny and babysitting experience, and caring for children has always been something I genuinely love. As the oldest of four sisters and now a stay-at-home mom to my daughter, nurturing little ones has been such a natural and joyful part of my life. I’m currently looking for a part-time nanny position where I would bring my daughter along. I truly believe this creates such a sweet opportunity for friendship, social development, and shared play. I’m intentional about keeping days structured, engaging, and full of creativity — whether that’s crafts, outdoor time, story time, or fun little outings. I have reliable transportation, am comfortable with dogs (just allergic to cats!), and am happy to help however I can to make your days run smoothly. I’d love to meet ahead of time to make sure we’re a great fit. References are available upon request — I can’t wait to connect with your family!

Abby was amazing with my two kiddos. Very respectful and kind! She took them places and spent quality time with them. From making them dinner, picking them up from school, and even going fishing! We enjoyed our time with her and really miss her! If we could have taken her when we moved, we would have!

Angela R., Nanny in Council Bluffs, IA 51503 with 5 years of paid experience

Hi! My name is Angela and a little about me is that I am currently a freshman undergraduate student at UNO going into Occupational Therapy for pediatrics with a major in Public Relations!I love to be active and be busy wether it’s hanging out with friends, traveling, working or volunteering, doing some yoga or going on a run to of course hanging out and spending time with my family. A fun fact about me is that I am also bilingual and can speak Spanish and I am learning sign language.A little bit about my background with caregiving is I’ve working in a childcare facility for 3 years with experience with ages 4 months to 12 years although I would say I have the most experience with toddlers to preschool/kindergarten (my favorite ages) and I have been babysitting consistently for two years and also teach kindergartners Sunday school every other Sunday as well. Overall I would absolutely love to look after your littles and make them feel loved, comfortable and safe while with their sitter, I look forward to it!!

Isabel  B., Nanny in Council Bluffs, IA 51503 with 7 years of paid experience

I have worked in child care centers for 7 years now! I have been a lead teacher for 4 years. I am CPR trained and have my certification in child development from Metropolitan community college. I have worked with 6-week-olds to 4-year-olds, but I'm willing to work with older kids too. I absolutely love children. It's so amazing how fast their skills develop and how much wonder they have for the world. They always keep work interesting! I would love to help keep your little one safe, happy, and well cared for.

Hi. I have been working professionally as a nanny/family assistant for over 20 years with high-profile clients in both Los Angeles/New York.

Stephanie P., Nanny in Council Bluffs, IA 51503 with 5 years of paid experience

☆♡Hello! My name is Stephanie J Palma. I'm a 2025 Wayne State College graduate with a bachelors degree in Communications, Arts, and Film. As moving from a small town to a big city, I yearn for community. Being the eldest out of 4 in a Hispanic household is where my experience started. Spanish was my first language! Im so grateful to be billingual. That being said, parents worked all the time so it was up to me to take initiative and responsibility to be their primary caretaker. I've always been a family girl. I have also done independent babysitting, and experience in Daycare. Those experiences made me into the caring, independent woman I am today. I went into college undecided, and took classes from psychology, business, education, to broaden my choices and expand my knowledge. I'm eager to learn and that has not changed even after graduation. I took it upon myself to be FIRSTAID and CPR certified in March. I love to cook, bake, clean, craft, read, bike, walk, DOGS AND CATS, hangout with friends, watch movies, play video games, dress up, go swimming and always open to trying new things! ♡☆

Kaylene D., Nanny in Council Bluffs, IA 51503 with 0 years of paid experience

Hi everyone, I’m Kaylene! I am 19 years old and currently a junior at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. I am a pre-health student studying forensic biology with a minor in psychology. I am from a large family. My older brother is 21, my younger sister is 11, and my youngest sister is 1. Both my parents work, so caretaking has become second nature to me. I have experience babysitting my youngest sister from 3-6 months old over the summer for about 5-12 hours each day. This has allowed me to gain skills such as diaper changing, feeding, comforting, and patience. I have also taken care of my middle sister for several years. From helping with potty training to homework and social skills. I am also experienced with school pick up/drop off and running errands with several children. I also have experience with toddler age children as I take care of my 3 year old nephew for about 8 hours on weekends. My nephew is autistic which has helped me understand nonverbal cues, develop my defusing skills, and overall be better help for those with disabilities. I have 5 cats and love to work with animals! I am CPR, AED, and First-Aid certified with the Red Cross. I am also fluent in both English and Spanish. In my free time I enjoy reading, listening to music, watching movies, and exercising (yoga, barre, cycle, pilates, weightlifting, long walks). I volunteer at the Red Cross as a medical screener. I am also a peer mentor for high school to first year college students through a scholarship program at UNL focused on supporting first-gen, low income, minority students. I am happy to make a positive impact wherever I’m needed. Whether that’s for a moment or years to come. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions or concerns, I would love to connect! :)
