A little bit about me

My name is Eve Laughery, I am an 18 year old who attends Waukee Northwest as a senior. I have nannied for 3 different families and worked in a daycare throughout the last 2-3 years. I have taken 3 babysitting classes and am a certified counselor, the most important things to me are keeping the children safe and making sure they have fun. One thing I love to focus on in the summer is being outside and doing activities, I try to avoid them and me using electronics as much as possible. I love to take them to the park, on walks, to the pool, and to the library.

A little bit about me

I am a nurse, I have a lot of experience with children. I would be happy to care for a special needs child but not a child with profound needs. Happy to do light housekeeping but not deep heavy cleaning. I am considered a good cook and feel comfortable cooking for most dietary needs. My favorite thing to offer is nighttime care of a newborn. For the first 2 weeks or however long needed I take the night shift and you get to sleep until first daylight feeding. Not for all but much appreciated for those who use it.

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Emma, I’m 27 years old, and I’m a mom to two kids who have given me over 6 years of real-life childcare experience. Being a parent has taught me patience, gentleness, multitasking, and how important it is for children to feel safe, understood, and cared for.

I’m naturally nurturing and attentive, and I truly enjoy spending time with kids.. whether that’s helping with routines, playing, doing creative activities, or simply being a calm and supportive presence in their day. I understand how important trust is when it comes to childcare, and I treat every child with the same care and kindness I would want for my own.

I’m dependable and easy to communicate with, and I love creating an environment where children feel comfortable, happy, and emotionally supported.
