I have years of experience caring for children and supporting busy families. Since April 2023, I have worked as a nanny and household manager for a private family in Waukee, caring for two children who were 4 and 7 years old when I began working with them. They are now 8 and 11. I am a natural nurturer who genuinely enjoys creating a safe, loving, and positive environment for children. My responsibilities have included providing attentive care, planning age-appropriate play and learning activities, transporting children to school and activities, preparing simple meals, doing laundry, and helping keep the household organized. I also coordinate schedules, run errands, assist with appointments, and take pride in anticipating a family’s needs before they arise. My goal is to make each family’s day a little easier and better so that when parents get home, they can spend less time worrying about household tasks and more time enjoying meaningful, quality time together as a family. I have also cared for a brand-new baby from infancy until she was 3 years old, along with providing childcare for other families throughout my career. Previously, I operated TLC On Call Nanny & Caregiver, providing childcare and caregiving services. My healthcare experience at MercyOne, supporting Labor & Delivery, Postpartum, and NICU, has also given me valuable experience working in environments where compassion, patience, and attention to detail are essential. I am dependable, nurturing, organized, and passionate about helping children thrive while making life easier for their parents. I’m looking for a wonderful family where I can build a trusting, lasting relationship and become a valued part of their lives.

Hi, my name is Megan Keller. I have over seven years of nannying experience. I’ve watched kids aging 5 weeks-13 years. I have a reliable car and can drive kids to any activities they have planned or that we can plan. I’m also cpr/first aid certified.

Hello, my name is Achwil! I’m an upbeat, responsible caregiver who genuinely loves creating fun, nurturing environments for kids. I’m very hands-on and enjoy planning engaging activities like baking, library trips, museum visits, crafts, and outdoor games. Whether it’s a structured outing or a spontaneous water balloon fight, I’m always excited to bring ideas to life and keep kids active, curious, and happy. I have nine years of professional nannying experience with multiple families, caring for children ranging from just four weeks old to 12 years old. As one of eight children myself, caregiving has always come naturally to me, and I’m very comfortable managing different ages, personalities, and routines. In addition to nannying, I have eight years of experience tutoring math and English for students ages 5–14, and I spent a year working as a substitute teacher at a Montessori school, supporting students from infancy through middle school. These experiences have strengthened my patience, creativity, and ability to adapt to each child’s unique needs. I earned my BA in Economics from Providence College and am currently pursuing a Master’s in Public Management at Johns Hopkins University. I would love to connect with families looking for an experienced, reliable, and engaging sitter!
