Find experienced nannies in Urbana, IA

Hi! My name is Isabelle, and I have several years of experience babysitting, nannying, tutoring, and teaching piano to kids of different ages. I enjoy working with children and try to create a balance of structure, safety, and fun. I have my own car and a clean driving record, so I am comfortable helping with transportation, school pickup, activities, homework, simple meals, light housekeeping, and daily routines. I also love staying active and am always up for getting kids out of the house, whether that means going to the park, golfing, playing pickleball, riding bikes, going on walks, or finding something fun to do outside. I would describe myself as dependable, patient, responsible, and easy to communicate with. My goal is always to make parents feel confident that their kids are safe, cared for, and having a good day.

Hello! I’m a 20 year old who has had a love for kids sense I was a teen. I started out babysitting my own siblings and then extended family and family friends. I have several years of experience in paid babysitting from families that I can give as references. I also nannied all summer a couple of years ago for 2 kids ages 7 and 9. I have tons of driving experience. I have worked with ages 0-12 a ton. The last 4 years I’ve been mostly working with ages 0-2, 2-5, and some elementary ages. I absolutely love working with 1-3 kids vs a daycare setting as it allows me to connect with them more and do things catered more to what they desire. I love running errands if you need someone to go grocery shopping for you, transporting kids to swimming lessons or sports, going to the park, trampoline parks, or any other activities. I don’t mind picking up toys, folding laundry, helping with things around the house, cooking meals, baking desserts with kids, etc. I am currently a Lead 4 and 5 year old teacher and onsite supervisor at my current job with preschool kids. I’m not the preschool teacher, I’m the wrap around care teacher who provides structure, play with a purpose, and more learning while the kids are not currently at preschool! I am CPR and First Aid certified for infant, child, and adult. I’ve been certified for the last 4 years! I have several other childcare trainings as well. A little more about me! My favorite age I’ve worked with probably has to be age 3! I love all ages, but working with 3s and watching them grow and develope so much in just 1 year was incredible and so rewarding for me! I also have experience being a lead teacher with the 2 year old classroom at one of my past jobs. I absolutely love to be silly and do activities with kids! I think I dislike being bored just as much as they do which helps all of us! I love painting, coloring, riding bikes, playing with chalk, bubbles, you name it. I also love me a good dance party with any age! I have several pets at home and have grown up with so many different kinds as well. I’m a huge dog and cat lover. I also have pet birds and a rabbit of my own. One of my favorite activities in nice weather is walking outside or riding a bike. Being in nature is wonderful! I also enjoy making bracelets and working with clay. I take spin wheel pottery classes every now and then for fun. I take so much pride and confidence in what I do and all that I’ve learned in the childcare industry. I am always learning!
