A little bit about me

I’ve worked with children for a very long time, there’s nothing better. I had my own home state-registered day care in Parkview, Iowa for 12 years.

After my own children were getting older, I returned to classes and became a Certified Nursing Aide. I helped elderly and other developmentally challenged people in their homes at the arc of the Quad Cities. I was only absent from work at the Arc once due to illness in two years.

We moved here to Cedar Rapids for a change of scenery. There is more variety here than in our small town.

I love cooking, gardening, nature, and animals. I’m motivated, kind, and reliable.

That was a lot. I appreciate your time.

A little bit about me

My name is Gloria and I am 20 years old. I've been apart of a local nanny agency for about 4 years, but due to the fact that it's been slow I'm looking for other families! I have experience with children from the ages of 2 weeks old up until 17 years old. I am certified in CPR, water safety, and infant care. I am looking for full-time hours but wouldn't mind part time as well :)
