Aruna M., Nanny in Kalona, IA 52247 with 10 years of paid experience

I have been babysitting for over 20 years and have watched children ages 3 weeks to 12 years old. I have worked in three different day cares, all in the infant room. I have also babysat for over 250 families. I am certified in CPR, First Aid, and AED, renewed February 2022. I have used this on one occasion to save a life. I have been vaccinated for covid in March and April 2021, and received a covid booster in November 2021. Please rest assured I will get a second covid booster as soon as available! I have also had a flu shot in September 2021, and a tdap in February 2022. I have come to believe that the core of child care is truly loving kids and helping them become the best versions of themselves. I learn something new from each child I have the privilege of babysitting, and most of all, I love getting the opportunity to nurture kids when they are young! I'm also actively involved in the Second City Acting program. I absolutely love engaging children in creative role-play! Finally, I also teach in the Northwestern Program for Gifted Students. I love making learning fun, and it is my dream to open an empowerment institute for kids one day. Please note I do not have after school availability at this time.

We were in town from Houston and lucky enough to find Aruna through sittercity. Our 9 year old daughter absolutely LOVED her. She is amazing. Instantly connected not only with our daughter, but we felt safe with her as well and were not even concerned. Aruna is a gem! If you are lucky enough to have Aruna with your child or children, you are the lucky one!

Hello! I have 4 years of CNA experience ranging from hospital to nursing home. I enjoy taking care of people! I currently work at a nursing home as a CNA and I am taking my real estate classes. I just got back from Army Basic Training in August! I have my own car, I can cook, clean, change diapers and I'm CPR certified! I have 3 younger siblings as I am the oldest. I've lived in Iowa my entire life. I'm patient due to working with people in all types of conditions, and I love meeting new people! I pretty much have a wide range of availability!

I like to consider myself a loving, patient hardworking individual. Punctuality and professionalism are things I strive for. I am so inspired and uplifted when I get to spend time with younger generations and feel complete when I get to help out in any way. I love to cook, clean, sing, dance, play. I am very athletic so I can keep up with high energy. Meditation is a big part of my life. This helps with high stress situations and staying calm so that they can be handled safely and appropriately. Above all else, making sure everyone’s cup is full is the most important thing to me.

Our kids had a great time playing with Katelyn! She played with them outside, and helped calm down our separation anxiety toddler. She also helped clean up and fold laundry when the kids were napping!

Katelyn S., Nanny in Kalona, IA 52247 with 10 years of paid experience

Hello, I’m Katelyn! I have been nannying and babysitting for 10+ years. My favorite part of babysitting is getting to see the creativity and imagination in kids. I approach childcare with curiosity and patience, encouraging kids to explore and engage with the world. I used to teach ballet and choreograph musicals for grades K-12. I have also worked extensively with children in healthcare settings. I have my Master’s Degree in Psychology. In my free time, I like to go on hikes, bake, cook, attend live music, and read. I practice a vegan and gluten free lifestyle, but I am comfortable navigating other diets. I am a big animal person, but I am unfortunately allergic to cats. I am comfortable working in a home with pets.

Fallon C., Nanny in Kalona, IA 52247 with 5 years of paid experience

Hi! I’m Fallon! I’m currently going to school online for Elementary Education, and I’m looking for a part-time nannying job in the Iowa City area. I’ve always loved being around kids, and I’m really excited to eventually have a career working with children. I’m a very caring, patient, and responsible person, and I love making kids feel comfortable and having fun with them. I’m happy to play outside, go on walks, do crafts, read, play games, help with homework, or just hang out and let the kids be kids! I’m looking for a family that needs help about 3–4 days a week during the daytime, and I do need to be finished by 4 PM. I’m hoping to find a family that I can get to know and build a good relationship with, rather than just feeling like someone who comes in and watches the kids. I also love animals and am totally comfortable with pets! I have a golden retriever named Dexter, so I definitely don’t mind a little extra chaos around the house. I’d love to find a family that feels like a good fit for both of us, and I’d be happy to chat and tell you more about myself!
