I have worked with children for over 10 years. In high school, I worked in the church nursery and babysat. From 2011 to 2012, I babysat/nannied for a family with two young girls. I continued babysitting through the years and in 2015 I began working at Kingdom Kids Preschool and Daycare in Waterloo, IA. There, I worked with every age, but spent most of my time with the 1-year-olds. I have also worked at Christian camps caring for the kids. Since September 2016, I have nannied for a family with two kids. When I started, they were 9 months and 5 years. I have had the opportunity and blessing of growing with them and seeing them develop into smart, caring, and joyful children for almost 2 years now. My time with them is coming to an end this December as my family moves to the Waterloo area. Starting in January, Read more I would love to nanny for another baby and their sibling(s) if they have any!
