A little bit about me

Hi Family! My name is Jonna Coleman and I am 20 year old Junior in College, majoring in Forensic Psychology. I am temporarily living in Des Moines until my permanent move to Arizona in the beginning of December. I have worked with children since the age of seven, in an in-home setting. At age 15 I started working inside daycares and schools. I currently work with adolescence, teens, and adults. I have years of experience with infants all the way up to age 18. I would love to work with you guys! I am willing to help with laundry, school, errands, meals, crafts, and travel. I am an aunt of seven so I have plenty of experience from them but also other jobs I have had over the years in childcare. I am loving, responsible, reliable, a quick learner, and FUN!!

A little bit about me

My name is Alayah, and right now I'm a pre-school assistant teacher at Quad City Montessori. I've been at QCMS for 3 years now and I've loved every bit of it. Unfortunately it's time for me to move on as I'm ready for a new challenge! I plan to move to Des Moines, IA in the middle of March to start a new job, but I'm not quite sure if I'm ready to get out of childcare fully. That being because I love being apart of kids lives and being that extra person to love and care for them! Any dates, nights out, weekend getaways, etc. I'm the person to call :)

"Alayah is one of the most loving, reliable, and trustworthy people I have ever met! She will treat your babies like her own, and do everything she can to make sure they’re happy, healthy, and safe! Upon our first meeting, I could tell teaching/caring for children is a true passion of hers. I cannot recommend Alayah enough!"

I am in my late 20’s currently preparing to transition into work again. I have worked with children for about 12 years now, but recently took time off to spend with family as my mother has been in the hospital. I am now able & available to be going back to work full time, so I am looking into options (considering going back to childcare/child related positions &/or nannying as well)! I have ample experience in this field, additional credentials from professional development & other courses taken, plus college education for child development & other related areas, as well as many references at hand, available upon request! Feel free to reach out with any questions or inquiries!

A little bit about me

Hi, I’m ciara. I haven’t had much experience nannying but when I was younger I would watch all six of my sisters and I would watch cousins. One summer I went and watched my autistic cousin every other week. I have a Lotta experience with kids especially with six sisters that are younger than me I’m currently pregnant right now and looking to find ways to make money, to prepare for this this one. I’m really caring and ready to help and watch the kids that need to be watched as their parents/ parent are working. I do have a car and license so going to the park or pool is an option I’m just ready to prepare myself and watch kids.
