A little bit about me

My name is Keeley Curran I am a student at Kirkwood pursuing a career with children. I come from a small town in Iowa and recently moved to Cedar Rapids for college this past year. I have been babysitting since I was 12 and completed a babysitting course through my school. For the past year I’ve also been teaching the infant room and the two year old room at a daycare in Cedar Rapids. I’ve always loved working with kids, it might stem from the fact I have three younger siblings that are all seven and under. I am first aid and cpr certified. I can clean and cook if needed and look forward to caring for your kids. I like to have lots of fun with the kids whether it’s reading, playing with toys, playing outside, etc. I look forward to hearing from somebody!

A little bit about me

I started nannying for a family while my children were young, so I could stay home with them.
I would take my children to this family's home each day. The mother was a doctor and the father was a teacher. During these years, their family continued to grow. This partnership was a mutual blessing for both of our families.
When my children were both of school age, I went back to college and finished my BS degree in Elementary Education with endorsements in Reading and Early Childhood Unified. I have been working for Grant Wood AEA for the past 12 years, currently in the Early Access Autism program with 0-3 year old children. I have been going on home visits to teach play strategies to parent's concerned about red flags for autism.
My children are now grown. I miss spending the day with little ones. I am an active person. I love to be outside, play, cook, do crafts, read books, and help kids grow and use their imaginations!
