A little bit about me
Hi, my name is Kendall! I’ve been a nanny for the past seven years, caring for children ranging from 3 months to 10 years old. My most recent family included a 7-year-old and a 9-year-old whom I nannied for over the past three years. For the last four years, I’ve also worked as a substitute teacher at a private preschool, primarily with 3- and 4-year-olds.
Working with children has always been my passion. Families I’ve worked with often describe me as incredibly patient, and they appreciate that I maintain a clean and organized home environment while caring for their little ones. I love keeping kids active, especially when we can get outside and enjoy some fresh air.
I’m excited to continue doing what I love: helping children grow, explore, and feel safe and happy in their own space.

A little bit about me
Hi, I’m Madi! I am 22 years old and finishing up my last 3 semesters of nursing school. I am a nationally certified EMT and spent the past 2 years working as an ER tech in Des Moines. I am looking for a change of pace and wanting to work with infants and children as I prepare to enter the workforce as an RN in December 2021–hopefully in the NICU, Labor & Delivery, or Pediatrics! I am looking for a part-time gig, ideally in the afternoon after classes. Other than my school commitments, I have a pretty flexible schedule. I live in Ames and attend school in Des Moines, so I am willing to travel.

A little bit about me
Hi, I’m Jenna! I’ve been working as a full-time nanny for the past two years, but I’ve been babysitting since 2015. I have experience caring for children from infancy to 13 years old, including watching up to six kids at once. I’ve worked with a variety of family dynamics and have provided overnight care for infants.
I graduated this past May from Iowa State with a Bachelors degree in Human Development and Family Studies, which has given me valuable insight into child development. I focus on creating a safe, nurturing, and fun environment while adapting to each family’s unique needs. I moved back to Minnesota (where I am from) and realized Ames is my home so I will be returning in September!
I also had the amazing opportunity to intern at a maternity home here in Ames to help mama's and their babies on their journey back to self-sufficiency.
I love working with people and creating a difference and providing support within their lives. I look forward to hearing from you!
