A little bit about me
Hello, I’m Fern Stubbs, from Iowa City. I have had a long childcare road, between my first outside of the family babysitting job at 10 years old to my last summer of full time nanning! I was an infant teacher from age 16 to age 19. I have my CPR, First Aid, Child Precaution certifications, along with a license and reliable transportation. I’m looking for a family to grow and build with, helping with kids, chores, errands and pets!

A little bit about me
I’m the oldest of seven kids, so caregiving has always been a big part of my life. It’s what led me to pursue work with children and to study Montessori, which I’ve completely fallen in love with. I believe in calm, respectful, child-led care, and I’ve been lucky to work in both Montessori classrooms and in-home settings, supporting infants and toddlers through their daily routines and milestones. I was promoted quickly in my roles because I’m reliable, observant, and genuinely love what I do. Outside of childcare, I’m passionate about writing—especially children’s stories—and I bring that creativity into the way I connect with kids. My goal is always to create a warm, safe, and thoughtful environment where children can feel understood and thrive.

A little bit about me
Hi! My name is Alissa and for my entire life I have lived in an in-home daycare. I absolutely love children and getting to care for them. I have been CPR Certified and went through classes to become babysitter certified when I was 12. I love going to the park, on short walks, coloring, reading, or watching same favorite movies with the kiddos. I am not allergic to any animals and also love dogs and cats. In my house we have a cat, Venus, that lives with us full time. I would be available most Monday's and Tuesdays during most hours of the day. Any other day would vary on my primary work schedule but most likely would not be available until the hours of 4-8pm.

Hi! My name is Ahava (ah-hah-vah). I am originally from Skokie, a suburb of Chicago, and I live in Iowa City for school. I attend the University of Iowa to study nursing. Throughout my time here, I've learned so much about health and development. I currently work at the University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics as a nursing assistant where I provide hands-on care to patients receiving medical care from their providers. Throughout high school, I worked many jobs revolving around care for children, including babysitting, tutoring, coaching (gymnastics), working as an overnight camp counselor, or simply being an older sister.
