Sittercity helps Maxwell families find the best nannies

I have been watching children in some fashion since I was 11 years old (26 years). I have been a nanny for a family in the past and it was a great experience. I have watched children from infancy into their teens and have no issues with watching multiple children at the same time. I am very organized and like to keep children occupied with activities with minimal screen time. I have two nieces and a nephew (all siblings) that I have watch since birth and still watch frequently. Their ages vary from 10 months to 7 years old. When I am watching them, I have one child home all day, one child home half days, and the eldest has school all day. This requires being able to keep the day organized and a good routine going.

Even though I am the youngest in my family, I have spent many years helping with my niece. I am CPR and First Aid certified. I work with 3-6 and 7-12 year olds mostly. I grew up helping at camp with at risk kids, I am a success coach with those kids as well. As a success coach I work with kids who aren’t having the best of times. I help them understand why they are upset and how we can work through this to have a better days. I am verified in mental health awareness for children. Running around and having a huge amount of energy is what I expect and love to have fun!

Hi I am Maggie. I started baby sitting in middle school. My parents would go on double dates with friends. I would watch my brother, and their daughter and son. Their son had autism but the 2 of us had a special bond. I also started baby sitting for a family in high school that had 3 kids. Twins who were between 3-4 and their brother who was 5-6. I baby sat and nannied for them until I started college. We went to adventureland and princess tea parties. They are in 6th and 8th grade now. I also baby sit for a family with 3 boys when I started with them there were only 2. The boys were very shy when I met them and had a hard time being left with a baby sitter. They ask there mom all the time now for me to come play including the youngest who was only a few months old when I started watching him. I currently work at Cadence Academy Preschool in Urbandale. I am a multi age teacher currently. I work with infants all the way up to 5 year olds currently. I love all of my classrooms but one of favorites is my infant classroom. In the mornings if I'm not hanging out with the toddlers you can find me giving teachers planning time or restroom breaks. In the afternoons you can find me hanging out with the babies. I love working with kids. If one of the primary infant teachers is gone my infant teachers will request for me to be in that classroom. I have been working for Cadence for 3 almost 4 years now. I have child and infant CPR/First Aid as well as adult CPR/First Aid. I also have Play training given to us by the Iowa AEYC. I have essentials child care training and universal precautions training.On the weekends usually I am either working at my part time job wig and pen pizza pub or hanging out with my dog a 1 year old terrier mix named Tank. I also volunteer at church with the kids programs. I was a Girl Scout until I graduated high school. I also love baking and trying out new recipes. I can't wait to meet you guys!

I have worked with various ages of children for over 15 years. I love to interact with children and watch them learn through play. There are various ways of interacting with children wether it be through reading stories, playing with toys or simply talking. I have taught preschool for various years as well and love teaching the children some milestones in their learning. I am flexible , responsible and reliable.

Hi families! I am Rebekah. I am from Iowa. I am moving to Florida the beginning of October. I am looking for a start date around the middle of October. I am moving to Florida for a new experience. I just graduated The University of Northern Iowa with a bachelors in Human services. I am also CRP/First Aid certified. I have also been starting to take classes on a website called Alison. This is a website that I can learn more about children and the best way to help them thrive and grow. As for my experience. I have 10 years of babysitting experience and three years professional nannying. The family I work for now have two kids. They were 4 and 8 months when I started. They will be 6 and 2. 5 when I move. I have worked for this family for almost 2 years. Before that I worked for a family with one child. She was 5 months when I started and 1. 5 years when they moved away. I look forward to hearing from you!
