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.

I'd describe my personality as bubbly, funny, passionate and patient! I like working with kids because they bring out the kid side in me and I enjoy being with any age! I have always loved being with kids. I'm looking for a job that I am able to build a relationship with the kids, as well as the family. I started working with kids when I was 13, I worked at Mid Iowa Gymnastics for 2 years. Nannied for 2 years and a daycare for a few months! As well as many babysitting jobs throughout my life. I have experience with ages newborn to 12+.

I love being a sitter because caring for children feels meaningful to me, and I truly enjoy creating a calm, nurturing environment where kids feel safe, understood, and supported. I have hands-on experience from working as a summer camp counselor, where I supervised groups of children, balanced different ages and needs, and kept them engaged through daily activities. I’m comfortable caring for infants, toddlers, and school-aged kids, and I’ve also helped families with routines, transportation, and general in-home support. I bring patience, warmth, and strong communication to every role, along with skills in multitasking, organizing schedules, and maintaining a safe environment. I’m attentive, gentle under pressure, reliable with transitions, and always focused on helping both children and parents feel supported.

With 5 years of experience with working in a daycare, my love for working with kids and helping them grow has they emerge through adolescence has only continued to grow. In addition, last summer I was a full time nanny! I have done everything and in between! I started babysitting when I was 14, and still do it as a 19 year old. I have worked with all ages at the daycare, but particularly enjoy the toddler age. Feel free to contact me for interviews or for references!

Hi! I’m Meredith, I’m 20 years old and currently an Education major at UNI. Working with kids is something I’m really passionate about, and I’ve gained a lot of hands on experience through one on one work in elementary classrooms, volunteering as a teacher and instructor at my church, and babysitting for family friends multiple times over the years. Even though I don’t have formal paid childcare experience yet, I’ve spent plenty of time supporting kids with learning, routines, activities, and positive behavior. I love creating fun, safe, supportive environments where kids can learn, be creative, and feel comfortable. I’m excited to help a family this summer and would love to get to know yours!
