Hadley B., Nanny in Johnston, IA 50131 with 6 years of paid experience

As a young child my mom did income daycare, so I grew up helping out with it. As well as helping raise my younger sister, after my mom passed away. I've continued to babysit when need be for neighbors, friends, family, and other children. I have been babysitting for at least 10 years, and have nannied for 3. lI've watched children of all ages, and feel extremely comfortable with them all. I've recently been watching a 3 year old and an infant, or an 8 and 10 year old. I've done many things with the children, making any meals, taking them to the pool, walks, the park, naps and bedtimes. I'm very artsy and enjoy doing crafts. I also love the outdoors, and would rather be outside then inside. I have no issues with any pets. I'm CPR certified, and can handle any situation comfortably. I do have my own car and am willing to take car of any drop offs or pick ups as needed. I am opened to anything! I also have a 6 month old that I would like to be able to tag along with me. I look forward to hearing from you!

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

Emily B., Nanny in Johnston, IA 50131 with 12 years of paid experience

With over 12 years of experience as a nanny, babysitter, and childcare professional, I am passionate about working with children and supporting their growth. I have also worked as a head preschool teacher and at an elementary school, giving me a well-rounded approach to childcare. I have a BS in Early Childhood Education and Elementary Education. I am very hands on and love to keep children engaged with creative activities, crafts, books, and games. I always bring along extra ideas and activities to suit each child’s age and interests. I am patient, dependable, and genuinely enjoy building strong, trusting relationships with both children and parents. When I’m not caregiving I enjoy spending time with my family, traveling all over the world, playing tennis, and curling up to read a good book.
