A little bit about me
My name is Jorden! I am a Junior education major at the University of Iowa. I love playing with children while incorporating learning. My favorite things to do with kids would be art projects, cooking, and spending time outside. I am very quick, mindful, and patient with children of all ages and abilities.
I am available Tuesday-Saturday during the mornings and afternoons. I am also available for overnight or late night shifts Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Please reach out for more information, thanks!
I practice strict social distancing in my personal life and I would be happy to wear a mask while babysitting if this is preferred.

A little bit about me
Hello! I grew up with 5 siblings, 2 with special needs. I've been babysitting them since I was 12. I've also worked with other parents. I'm outgoing, and would be great at keeping them occupied. I'm good at multi - tasking, and would definitely get some cleaning in during my time, without it negatively affecting my child care abilities. I have knowledge on cooking, and other household duties. I'm also hood with pets.

A little bit about me
I am a current University of Iowa student looking for a summer nanny job. I have experience with babysitting over the years and I was also a lifeguard who taught swim lessons for 4 years. Although I am no longer certified in CPR and First Aid, I do remember all of the classes well. I would love to help out any family in need of someone to take their kids to events or just to entertain them during the summer. I am very pet friendly and also wouldn't mind helping you out with cleaning around the house while you're at work as well!

A little bit about me
My name is Paisley, I am a sophomore in high school and I am 16 years old. My mother had an in-home daycare for a couple of years that I actively assisted in. I was also the full-time babysitter for 2 different families. I also babysit many kids just for special circumstances such as date nights, vacations, etc. I have also gained more experience caring for children in my personal life as I have a 5-year-old brother and a now 1-year-old nephew I have always been the sole babysitter for since I can remember. I am also good with animals and maintain a clean work environment 24/7. I have my driver's license and a clean driving record that comes along with that, I do have access to a vehicle the majority of the time but it is a shared vehicle and I may not have access considering special circumstances.
