A little bit about me

Hi! I'm Lainey, a 19-year-old college student at the University of Iowa and a proud graduate of Xavier High School.

I’ve been babysitting since I was 13 and have always loved working with kids. I’m also a dance teacher and have been teaching children of all ages since I was 14, so I know how to keep little ones entertained, active, and safe. Whether it’s helping with homework, playing games, or creating fun routines, I bring a lot of energy and patience to every job.

I'm responsible, reliable, and always try to create a positive and caring environment for the kids I care for. I’d love to connect and see if I’m the right fit for your family!
