A little bit about me

Hi, I am Avery. I am a sophomore at Iowa State University studying Marketing! I am in a sorority and am very involved in my church.

I’m now looking for a babysitting/nannying job here in Ames. I have a car, a valid driver’s license, and a pretty flexible schedule!

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Isabelle, and I have several years of experience babysitting, nannying, tutoring, and teaching piano to kids of different ages. I enjoy working with children and try to create a balance of structure, safety, and fun. I have my own car and a clean driving record, so I am comfortable helping with transportation, school pickup, activities, homework, simple meals, light housekeeping, and daily routines. I also love staying active and am always up for getting kids out of the house, whether that means going to the park, golfing, playing pickleball, riding bikes, going on walks, or finding something fun to do outside. I would describe myself as dependable, patient, responsible, and easy to communicate with. My goal is always to make parents feel confident that their kids are safe, cared for, and having a good day.
