A little bit about me

Hi there! My name is Nyah Walderbach. I am currently 16 years old, and go to Xavier High School. I have my driver license and don’t have an accidents on my record since i’ve had my permit(14 years old). I would love an opportunity in this type of care, because I love children and have a care-taking personality. I graduate in 2028, and am currently a sophomore (coming to an end). I would work weekends, and Wednesday-Friday 4-9PM. I would also be flexible with whatever changes(**would need a notice). If you’re interested and live in Marion, Cedar Rapids, or Hiawatha, feel free to give me a call! I would love to take care of your children or relative and would want you to feel confident with a well rounded student taking care of them! Call [phone number hidden], or email [email hidden] for better communication. Thank you!

A little bit about me

Hi I’m new to babysitting have had 4 younger cousins, a younger brother, 2 great-nephew I’ve cared for, and I’m studying to be a English teaching for middle-high schoolers but I also love working with younger ages. I can do simple meal prep and love books and games (video, board, and sports related games). I can carpool kids around pretty easily and help with cleaning up around the house/apartment if you have the supplies.

A little bit about me

I am in my early 40s. I have raised one beautiful human already. I have a 16 and a nine-year-old so paid experience. I don’t have real world experience as a nanny/caretaker. I got it down. I love the baby stage. I am a strong believer in the setting boundaries guideline even at six months old. I understand that they cannot communicate to tell us what they want with words but at the same time setting boundaries early makes great structure for later I I’m also a strong believer in eye contact and talking normally no baby talk
