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.

A little bit about me
I'm a college student who's currently looking for another part-time job while the schools are still closed. I have a sister that is 10+ years younger than me, so I have quite the experience when it comes to handling younger children. I worked as a summer camp counselor a couple of summers before I moved for college, so I know how to keep the kids busy! I'm also CPR and first aid trained.

A little bit about me
I have been watching children for the past seven years and have absolutely loved getting the experience to keep doing it. My favorite part about working with children is seeing them grow and knowing that I got to be apart of that experience. I also love working with children because of how many life events they are able to teach you. I have also been certified for the past four years and am currently certified in CPR.

How to Hire a Weekend Nanny in Ames, IA
Nanny Lane helps you find a weekend nanny in Ames, IA who fits your family's schedule. Browse profiles of nannies who are available on Saturdays or Sundays, then message the ones you like.
We offer nanny services including background checks, Agency, and nanny payroll. Start by posting a profile with a job description, and soon you can start connecting with nannies who fit your family.
What Is a Weekend Nanny?
A weekend nanny cares for your children on Saturdays, Sundays, or both. Some weekend nannies work every weekend, and others are available for the occasional weekend when you have an event, a trip, or a work commitment. Many have another job during the week, so they are often flexible about shorter shifts and one-off dates.
Common Responsibilities of Weekend Nannies in Ames, IA
Weekend care looks a lot like any other nanny job: supervising play, preparing meals and snacks, getting children to activities, and keeping to nap and bedtime routines. Because weekends are often busier and more active, you may also ask for help with outings, birthday parties, sports games, or family errands.
What to Consider Before You Hire
Be clear about the days and hours you need, whether the schedule is regular or occasional, and how much notice you can give. Rates and pay rules, including how weekend hours are paid, vary by state or province, so agree the details in writing and consider using nanny payroll to keep it simple. If you only need a few weekends a year, say so up front so nannies can plan around it.
Weekend Nanny Interview Questions
Once you find a promising candidate, invite them for an interview to see if they would be a great fit for your family. Here are some questions you can ask:
- Which weekends are you available, and how much notice do you need?
- Do you work every weekend or only occasionally?
- Are you comfortable with outings and activities, and with driving the children if needed?
- Are you trained in First Aid or CPR?
- What rate do you charge for weekend shifts?
At this stage, request their references and ask their references some questions. After preparing the job offer or contract, we recommend that you run a background check before the start date.
