I'm a nursing student at the University of Iowa, going into my sophomore year, with a strong passion for caring for others, especially kids! I've been babysitting for families over the years, helping with everything from schoolwork to extracurricular activities and sports. I also have experience teaching young children at my local church's Powerlife program, where I learned how to keep kids engaged, supported, and smiling. In addition to my childcare experience, I've worked as a CNA for nearly two years and am CPR and First Aid certified. I have my own car and am comfortable with children of all ages and personalities. I love building connections with kids, helping them grow, and creating a fun and safe environment where they can feel comfortable. Whether it's helping with homework, getting them to soccer practice, or just making their day a little brighter, I am here to help however I can!
