I have extensive experience as a caregiver for children, animals, and the elderly. In my current role as a paraprofessional, I specialize in working with children with disabilities, specifically those with Autism and ADHD. I am First Aid/CPR certified and maintain all relevant ADA/ AEA certifications. A background check was recently completed, and while I passed, I believe the current badge misrepresents my report. I am concerned that motor vehicle violations from 2021 are negatively impacting the badge status, despite not reflecting my professional caregiving capabilities. I am happy to share my full report for further clarification.

Isabelle went above and beyond for us! Our son is autistic so we have never had a babysitter before and Isabelle was so great with him and our other children. She even put away the toys and did some cleaning after putting the kids to sleep.

Hi! I’m Morgan. I’m 22 years old and I’m looking to be a babysitter. I have babysat kids before and have been told I’m very good with kids. My patience runs high so maybe that’s it. I love to play volleyball, sing, read books. My favorite singer is P!nk. I love pets (my favorite animal is a monkey) and I have 2 cats. I have 6 years of paid babysitting experience. I also have CPR certification and know basic first aid. I am willing to do light house keeping and simple meals (I’m not much of a cook). I have my own car so if there are activities, sports, or just a trip to the park, I can do that. My availability is very flexible right now as I am currently looking for a job. I hope to hear from you soon!

I love working with children and being part of their growth and development. It is incredibly rewarding to support parents in caring for their bundles of joy while they are at work. I have extensive hands-on experience, having babysat for many families in my community during high school, helped raise my 10 nieces and nephews, and cared for my own son. Additionally, I worked in a before and after school program, where I cared for school-age children. I hold a CPR certification and am trained in first aid. During high school, I completed two different programs to earn my CNA certification, which included training as a first responder. These experiences have equipped me with valuable skills to ensure children's safety and well-being.

Hi! I'm passionate about working with children and love helping kids grow, learn, and thrive in a safe, supportive environment. I enjoy creating positive experiences that are both fun and enriching while giving parents peace of mind that their children are well cared for. I have extensive childcare experience through babysitting for neighbors and family members, working in before- and after-school programs and summer camps, spending a summer as a nanny, and working with youth in a detention center setting. These experiences have helped me develop patience, adaptability, and strong communication skills with children of different ages and backgrounds. My skills include planning age-appropriate activities, preparing meals, light housekeeping, and maintaining daily routines to help children feel comfortable and secure. I am also CPR and First Aid certified, allowing me to respond confidently in emergency situations. I strive to provide dependable, attentive care while creating a positive and engaging environment for every child I work with. Feel free to ask for a reference!

I have 2 sisters that I helped take care of all the time growing up and not only that but had a few babysitting jobs when I was in middle school and high school for friends of my parents. my mom had an in home daycare that I was around growing up for quite a while. I also had a job coaching gymnastics for about a year and I coached from 18 months to 6 year olds. I have a passion for children and want many of my own when my fiance and I get married. I am trained in CPR at the Cedar Rapids police station as part of my training (im a police cadet) but dont have an actual card that says im certified yet.

My name is Kathryn "Katie" Smith! I love working with kids of all ages. My best skill is being able to get on the children's level as a friend and teacher. My favorite activity to do with children is drawing or dancing! I believe the best way to teach kids is hand over hand actions and to hold them accountable without anger toward them.

I've had experience with children of all ages i have also taught and prepared children ages 2 to 5 for preschool and kindergarten. i enjoy giving young children a boost in their education i have lots of unique yet effective methods. I am fairly patient with children and lean towards a comfortable understanding of how a family would like their child to be cared for. if possible i enjoy crafts, and regular activities with the children I care for; for such things to work I would require knowledge on things we can do as I do not like going out of bounds. I am CPR, first Aid, and mandatory reporter certified and have recently had a one-year experience with the creative curriculum of teachings strategies with an infant to toddler class. My work with kids has been my career for nine years and I have enjoyed it enough to begin early childhood education degree online. it is not in my interest to drive children around places my services will be provided only in the home and it is not in my interest to handle a child with out-of-control behaviors such as hitting, kicking, throwing things, running away, or biting. if your child is prone to these behaviors I do not qualify as I feel children with these behaviors need their parents more. please feel free to contact me if you are interested in the care I provide.
