Hi my name is Anela and I am currently a student at Iowa State studying family and consumer sciences.

A little bit about me

Hello! I'm a junior at Iowa State University with multiple years of valuable child care experience. I have a genuine passion for working with children and believe in providing them with engaging and interactive activities.

When babysitting, I love to involve the kids in hands-on crafts such as baking, coloring, and exploring outdoor adventures. I believe in striking a balance between fun and educational experiences while limiting screen time. However, I'm always up for building a cozy fort and enjoying a movie together!

As a responsible and caring babysitter, I prioritize the safety and well-being of the children under my care. I am dedicated to creating a positive and nurturing environment where kids can learn, grow, and have a great time.

If you're looking for a trustworthy babysitter who brings creativity, fun, and a love for hands-on activities, I would be thrilled to help out! Feel free to reach out to me for a reliable and enjoyable babysitting experience.
